Before this patch, the destructor of KDirectoryContentsCounter might
delete the worker object, which lives in another thread, while one of
its methods was still being executed. This could cause a crash. Only if
the destroyed KDirectoryContentsCounter was the last one, the worker
thread was stopped, and the destructor waited until all workers are
done.

The pointer to QThread object is stored in a global variable, and each
view increments/decrements a reference count when it starts/stops using
the thread. If this thread reaches zero, the thread is stopped.
Note that we cannot just use a smart pointer, like QSharedPointer, to
manage the thread, because we must make sure that the thread is not
running any more before the QThread is deleted.

This prevents that the GUI freezes if there are many files inside the
directory, or if the access to the directory is slow for some other
reason.
