Support for dynamic layout support extended

Hi folks,

Just an fyi, I've just completed a series of tickets that extend the
ability to update the layout of your apps without having to restart your
app.

Assuming you have a dynamic JSON layout file [1], this can now be used to
specify:

as before:
- member order
- member grouping
- column layouts
- associating actions with properties or collections

and in addition the following are also now supported:
- named
- typicalLength
- multiLine
- cssClass
- describedAs
- render
- paged

where each corresponds to an annotation [2] of the same name (@Named,
@TypicalLength etc).

Obviously, to use this, you'll need to build from source [3] until it gets
formally released.

Cheers
Dan
