Injection of message body readers/writers now supported in latest builds

Hi,

Injection of @HttpContext or @Resource stuff is now supported on message
body readers/writers. So it is now possible to inject, say UriInfo, like
one can on a resource class.

Readers/writers are instantiated within the scope of the web application
(previously they were statically scoped per the class loader).

Next up: scan for readers/writers like we scan for resource classes,
thus META-INF services will no longer be required for registration.

After that: support a JAXB context resolver, one or more of which may be
implemented by the application, and an aggregation can be injected onto
a reader/writer or resource class. This will enable the application to
declare JAXB contexts.

And after that: enable deferring instantiation of readers/writers/jaxb
resolvers/resource config etc to an IoC framework.

Paul.
