Subject: [PATCH] MAINT-1175: Properly pass LLRegistry's COMPARATOR to
 underlying map. Although LLRegistry and LLRegistrySingleton have always
 defined a COMPARATOR template parameter, it wasn't used for the underlying
 map. Therefore every type, including any pointer type, was being compared
 using std::less. This happens to work most of the time -- but is tripping us
 up now. Pass COMPARATOR to underlying std::map. Fix a couple minor bugs in
 LLRegistryDefaultComparator (never before used!). Specialize for const char*.
 Remove CompareTypeID and LLCompareTypeID because we now actively forbid using
 LLRegistry<std::type_info*, ...>; remove only known reference
 (LLWidgetNameRegistry definition).
