enhancemanet wish for TIP#257 implementation

Hello Donal,
after having done some tests on the Tcl level for hooking Itcl onto the new
OO system, I have the impression, that it might be easier to use the
C-level functions.

In looking how to do that I found out that the the current implementation
makes me a lot of trouble, as there is only a PUBLIC_METHOD flag. What I
would additionally need is a PROTECTED_METHOD flag, which can be handled in
the current implementaion in the same way as not to set PUBLIC_METHOD
(which implicitly means "PRIVATE_METHOD").

The consequence would be that on some places (for example the calls to
Tcl_NewMethod) the code had to be changed to explicitly handle the
appropriate flags bits. Additionally it would be necessary to not set the
flags in the call CallContext and Tcl_Method structure directly but from
the parameter value given in the call.

I think that would help me a lot.

Cheers,
Arnulf
