As previously reported by @flaushi in #7471 (comment), we discovered

that binding a parameter causes a `ClassMetadataFactory#getClassMetadata()` call, which in turn leads to large performance
regression when using any `object` type as parameter.

Following two snippets lead to an internal `ClassMetadataFactory#getClassMetadata()` call, which in turn leads to an
exception being thrown and garbage collected, plus multiple associated performance implications:

```php
$query->setParameter('foo', new DateTime());
$query->getResult();
```

```php
$query->setParameter('foo', new DateTime(), DateTimeType::NAME);
$query->getResult();
```

This is due to following portion of code:

https://github.com/doctrine/doctrine2/blob/434820973cadf2da2d66e7184be370084cc32ca8/lib/Doctrine/ORM/Query.php#L406-L409

Notice how `$value = $this->processParameterValue($value);` happens before attempting to infer the type for the parameter value.

That call leads to this segment being reached, which leads to the regression:

https://github.com/doctrine/doctrine2/blob/434820973cadf2da2d66e7184be370084cc32ca8/lib/Doctrine/ORM/AbstractQuery.php#L423-L433

Assuming the bound parameter type is provided, we can completely skip attempting to introspect the given object:

```php
$query->setParameter('foo', new DateTime(), DateTimeType::NAME);
$query->getResult();
```

Processing the parameter value is not needed in this case, so we can safely skip that logic for all known parameters.
In order to not introduce a BC break or change the `AbstractQuery#processParameterValue()` implementation, we could filter
out all parameters for which the type is given upfront, and later on merge them back in instead.

The test expectation to be set is for `UnitOfWork#getSingleIdentifierValue()` to never be called.
