[processing] New c++ QgsProcessingRegistry class

Intended as a registry for the various processing components,
including providers, algorithms and various parameters and outputs.

Currently handles only registration of providers, as a step toward
removing processing's algList (this requires first porting
the algorithm class to c++)

A QgsProcessingRegistry instance is attached to QgsApplication,
and is retrieved by QgsApplication::processingRegistry()
