[IronPython] Creating Dynamic Assemblies from IronPython 2.6

[Dino Viehland]

Maybe we could add a BuiltinFunctionBuild which provided this functionality.  Then as long as the creator holds onto the BFB they can continue to mutate the function w/o allowing anyone else to.

I seem to recall that in Seo's original code, MakeOrAdd was used to build up the overloads over time as user code asked for additional method signatures for the same method name.  This could presumably be simulated by replacing the method group in Python with a new method group that contained all the original infos plus the new one.

Do you actually need MakeOrAdd or would the factory that takes multiple method infos be good enough?

I'm just reluctant to open up the ability to modify any built-in function.
