Deprecate ObjectInstantiatorClassGenerator and provide a replacement
ClassGeneratingEntityInstantiator which doesn't retain a reference to
the context class loader.
Original pull request: #128.
Added some JavaDoc where missing. Better variable names and slightly parameter ordering changes. Formatting in the unit tests and reference to the original ticket.

Introduced BytecodeGeneratingEntityInstantiator which dynamically generates classes to speed up the dynamic instantiation of objects. Since we cannot support every use case with byte code generation we gracefully fallback to the ReflectiveEntityInstantiator.
BytecodeGeneratingEntityInstantiator has support for unboxing of constructor parameters and more robust handling for cases where we cannot generate a custom ObjectInstantiator.

Added a Spring Data specific CollectionFactory that augments Spring's CollectionFactory with support for special collection types like EnumSet and EnumMap. For all other types we delegate to the wrapped class.
Added caching to DefaultTypeMapper, SimpleTypeInformationMapper, BasicPersistentEntity and PreferredConstructor as these seem to be performance hotspots on the reading side of object conversion.
ReflectionEntityInstantiator now actually throws the wrapped exception created in the catch block handling BeanInstantiationExceptions.
Pull request: #25.
