This is the first commit in the series. This commit only:
1) Splits Context into BlackboxContext and WhiteboxContext
2) Splits Macro into BlackboxMacro and WhiteboxMacro
3) Introduces the isBundle property in the macro impl binding
Here we just teach the compiler that macros can now be blackbox and whitebox,
without actually imposing any restrictions on blackbox macros. These
restrictions will come in subsequent commits.
For description and documentation of the blackbox/whitebox separation
see the official macro guide at the scaladoc website:
http://docs.scala-lang.org/overviews/macros/blackbox-whitebox.html
Some infrastructure work to make evolving macros easier:

The new name for AbsTypeTag was a matter of a lengthy discussion:
http://groups.google.com/group/scala-internals/browse_thread/thread/fb2007e61b505c4d
I couldn't decide until having fixed SI-6323 today, which is about
trying to reflect against a local class using typeOf.
The problem with local classes is that they aren't pickled, so their metadata
isn't preserved between Scala compilation runs. Sure, we can restore some of
that metadata with Java reflection, but you get the idea.
Before today typeOf of a local class created a free type, a synthetic symbol,
with a bunch of synthetic children that remember the metadata, effectively
creating a mini symbol table. That might be useful at time, but the problem is
that this free type cannot be reflected, because the global symbol table of
Scala reflection doesn't know about its mini symbol table.
And then it struck me. It's not the presence of abs types (type parameters and
abs type members) that differentiates arbitrary type tags from good type tags.
It's the presence of types that don't map well on the runtime world - ones that
can't be used to instantiate values, ones that can't be reflected.
So we just need a name for these types. Phantom types are compile-time only
concept, whereas our types can have partial correspondence with the runtime.
"Weak types" sound more or less okish, so let's try them out.

Currently there are discrepancies between the behavior of
c.reify and c.universe.reify.
First step in fixing these problems is removing the duplication in the API.
That's why I'm cutting away the Context.reify shortcut.
Context.reify is a magic macro, hardwired in the fast track mechanism, so
removing it requires redeploying the starr (because an old starr will
crash if launched on sources that don't contain Context.reify).
To cleanly redeploy a starr I've left a Context.reify stub in sources,
but hidden it behind a `protected` modifier. When starr is redeployed
(in a subsequent commit) the stub will be removed.
I've also updated the tests to use c.universe.reify instead of c.reify.
This will break some of them, because c.universe.reify uses a standard
compiler mirror, which unlike a macro mirror doesn't like packageless classes.
That's an annoyance, but I think having clean separation of commits
is more important that being 100% consistent.
