Problem
Entity information is not stored persistently anywhere. The information is parsed from hooks (hook_entity_info() and hook_entity_info_alter()) and temporary cached. It's true that Drupal stores entity info in the field_bundle_settings_ENTITYTYPE__BUNDLENAME variables (see https://drupal.org/node/1569594) but those variables are only inserted/changed via UI and for this reason we cannot rely on them.
