proposed patch

I've posted this patch to the mailing list multiple times and got no echo
whatsoever. Maybe a bug report is the way to go...

Attached you'll find patches for CodeGenerator.cs and quite a few
System.CodeDom classes. They implement the Visitor pattern* for the
CodeGenerator (traverser) and the classes in System.CodeDom (nodes to be
visited). The result is much nicer and faster code.

*) Thanks again to Robert Jordan, for sketching out how to apply the
Visitor pattern to the CodeGenerator/CodeDom classes!


The patch is a bit long only because it contains a lot of boiler plate code.
ChangeLog entries are included, all unit tests pass.

Please review.
