F# violates the ECMA spec for how to encode type names. In the above sample
List<C1> in encoded in the cattr blob like this:

Microsoft.FSharp.Collections.FSharpList`1[[Test+TestTypeInstantiationsInAttributes+C1]],
FSharp.Core, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a 

Note that the first parameter of FSharpList is
"[Test+TestTypeInstantiationsInAttributes+C1]". This is wrong. ECMA states that
if the type is enclosed in '[]' it MUST be an assembly-qualified name.


Fixed trunk in r155438 and 2-6 in r155439.
