Merge: Nitj: A compiler to Java code.

Introduce a new compiler `nitj` that takes nit code and produce Java code.

Passes ~700/950 tests from the base*.nit test suite.

Since the commit serie is rather long, I suggest to read it comit by commit.

Some features still missing (maybe later):
* generics
* arrays
* varargs
* strings

Note: There is no concrete motivation beyond this engine. Did it for the lulz.
