Warn when an explicitly specified type or object does not result in a join point match

Detailed description 
You are warned if no join points are matched by the aspect, but not if you specify several types and/or objects and
only some of them result in matches.

I'm downgrading this feature, because supporting it will add
some complexity to Aspect that doesn't seem justified. I did
some work on it and realized that the main problem is avoiding
spurious warnings when using :types_and_descendents and
:types_and_ancestors, where you can expect many of the types
in the hierarchy to not result in JP matches.

I think the best workaround is to use
"aspect.pointcuts.join_points_not_matched" when you
suspect things aren't matching as expected.
