 Put this back on the radar.

+Ok, so it is pretty clear that CSC sets beforefieldinit iff there is
+no explicit static ctor.
+
+It is pretty easy to make MCS act like this. One weird thing I did
+notice is that with the test case you give, without aot'ing it, the
+CSC version is actually *slower* than the mcs version (the only
+differnce in the IL is the beforefieldinit). When I passed -O=all,
+however, the perf was the same.
+
+With the AOT, CSC's version was faster than MCS's (though both were
+much slower than the JIT'd version).
+
+Also, this will require some extensive testing, so we need to do it
+when we are all back from vacation.
