Details:

This patch adds a number of changes in marshaling support code and improves
support for gtk# applications. These changes include:

- Improve multicast delegates handling.
- Handle delegates and multicast delegates differently with
direct call to delegate method and __ILJitDelegateInvokeCodeGen
respectively.
- Improve marshaling to/from Ansi/UTF8/UTF16 strings using the pinvoke record
and the ILPInvokeGetMarshalType function.
- Inline marshaling intructions and build a call to the native external
function directly in the body of the new build function if not defined
_IL_JIT_ENABLE_DEBUG  (if it is defined build a stub in a second function).
- Allow extended marshaling of simple arrays for complex types and strings if
defined USE_BYREF_MARSHALING (default is set to 0).
- Implement handling of strings that are embedded in stuctures and simple
arrays (needed for gtk#/sample/testdnd.exe).
- Improve recursive marshaling of arrays and structure by handling the
IL_META_MARSHAL_DIRECT flag and the NeedMarshalValue function.
- Introduce handling of the IL_META_MARSHAL_CUSTOM flag with two new
MarshalCustomToObject and MarshalObjectToCustom functions for objects that
support custom marshaling.
