[aquaria] crash :/

[Mathias Panzenböck]

Ok, I fixed the seg fault by writing a very simple reference counting smart pointer (SmartPtr<Type>) 
and using this to hold references to IngredientData. :)

The smart pointer only works for single threaded usage, but I think only one thread is accessing all 
the IngredientData instances (in a writing manner). For multithreading one would need atomic 
integers and more testing. Or copy+paste from Qt (its also GPL).

You can pull the changes from here:

Note that I changed Continuity::ingredients to private during debugging. Generally I think there are 
to much things in public scope. I think a narrow interface narrows down the usage and makes 
debugging more easy (that includes using const where appropriate).

Now I can finally continue playing. :) The seg faults where really hindering.
