how about: `auto a = new A.this!foo("xFn");`?

there is no harm in specifying constructor name for resolving ambiguity
here. and it still allows `auto a = new A!int.this!foo("xFn");` for
example. and it's not breaking any existing code, afaik.

i'm sure that this is not a complex patch. let's hope someone will write
it and convince Walter to accept it.
