[haXe] New feature : Properties

[Franco Ponticelli]

I like this ... very much!

Some questions/notes:

1. "default" now can't be used safely as a method name (was already a
keyword?).
2. I've had to spent more time than necessary to interpret those 2 line (the
confusion is that seems that you can just read the value outside the class,
not inside):

   - the field ro can only be readed outside of the class code
   - the field wo can only be writen outside of the class code

Isn't that better?

   - outside the class code, the field ro is read only
   - outside the class code, the field wo is write only

3. Can you use Reflect to access a property? Or has the same restriction as
Dynamic?
4. How do you set a runtinme-generated method for getters/setters?

Thank you,

Franco.
