Reference counted containers prototype

[kenji hara]

I've already posted a dmd patch to fix all of opDispatch problems:

https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/dmd/pull/280

With it, I've posted a useful library utility to implement
'super-type' like D1 typedef:

https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/phobos/pull/300

I'm naming it 'ProxyOf', and it supports various of forwardings,
function call, property access, and specialized template member
function.
