Lazy binding of methods.

We  donot  want  to  built   the    entire   method   representation  in
<-send_methods,  <-get_methods,  <-instance_variables,  <-get_table  and
<-send_table in one go. Many methods are   never used in an application,
and it would be good practice if   their definition is never loaded from
disk.

Therefore, a <-get_table and <-send_table start of empty. If a method is
needed, getSendMethodClass()/getGetMethodClass() is called,  which first
does  a  lookup  in  these  tables.  If    the   method  is  not  found,
getResolve(Send/Get)MethodClass() is called to find the method.

One       day,       the       implementation         was        simple.
getResolve(Send/Get)MethodClass() just walked  along   the  methods  and
variables and added the method or  var   to  the table when found,or the
constant @nil if the method was not found.

Right now, live is  harder  as   <-send_methods  and  <-get_methods  are
initially not filled either.  There  are   two  sources  of methods: the
classdecl  structure  from  <-c_declarations    and  the  host-language.
Moreover, the definitions in the host-language  may be change at runtime
(recompilation of sourcefiles).

Two cases need to be considered. Binding all (send- or get-) methods and
binding a single one. After all  methods   have  been  bound, no dynamic
binding is needed until the sources  are   changed.  If  a single method
needs to be bound, the system should first  check whether the host has a
more recent definition. If so, the host   should pass its definition. If
not, the current definition must be used.

To realise this, the class is  given   a  `generation number', and so is
each method. If a method needs  to   be  resolved, the system will first
check the method chain. If the method   chain contains a method with the
same generation as the class, this one is  used. If the number is older,
or the method is not known at  all,   the  host binder is called. If the
host binder fails, the built-in binder is called. If this fails too, the
instance variables are checked.

class->clear_cache increments the generation number of the class.
