  Comment  :
  Various Yaml related changes:
  -     Integer and Numeric now derives from RubyObject so that a new CLR type is not created when these classes are subclassed.
  -     All classes derived from RubyObject need to implement a deserializing constructor.
  -     If a class in C# library represented a Ruby class and also implemented its methods using RubyMethod attribute the static [RubyMethod] methods were visible on the singleton class of that class. This caused problems with method lookup. This shelveset adds a flag to the class loader that hides all CLR methods from a class that implements a Ruby class (via RubyClass attribute). This fix removes the necessity of splitting of classes into "Ops" and "real classes" artificially (an example of which is YAML::Stream).
  -     Refactors RubyTypeBuilder.DefineConstructors a little bit and fixes problem with constructors taking RubyClass - the generated code was unverifiable (an instruction was missing).
  -     Removes mscorlib dependency from Yaml tests so that they can be run by MRI as well.
