make ComponentType operate more like EntityType
-----------------------------------------------

         Key: HHH-1907
         URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-1907
     Project: Hibernate3
        Type: Improvement

  Components: core  
    Reporter: Steve Ebersole
 Assigned to: Steve Ebersole 


Specifically, we need to move all the code directly dealing with property-access, instantiation, etc out of here.  So where do we move it?  Well, EntityType for example moves this stuff off to the persisters; the type then just looks up the persister when needed.  Not sure we actually need a persister per-se for handling components; perhaps just ComponentMetamodel is enough...

Why is this important?  Well the way ComponentType is currently structured leads to the need for certain configuration properties to be classloader scoped (static on Environment) instead of SessionFactory scoped.  This is painful for two in particular: 1) whether to use reflection optimization and 2) bytecode provider.

Also, this change should allow us to cleanup how property accessors are built
