IComparisonMethodFactory overriden classes

[eclipse-diffmerge-bot]

In IComparisonMethodFactory:
1/ Rename getOverridenClasses to getOverridenComparisonMethods.
2/ In this method, offer a secondary mean to designate comparison methods with a symbolic key (like id in plugins) instead of a hard class dependency. Add a way to register a comparison method with such a key.

About 1/, I agree that the method name could be made clearer. Maybe something like "getOverridenFactories" would be better.
"getOverridenComparisonMethods" refers to a particular case, the case of comparison methods, so it could be an additional method but not the general, inherited one; still, I'm not convinced having an additional method for this specific case would be a good idea.

2/ Agreed that there are obvious use cases.
