Now Document.new and #update_slots are able to accept 'method-based' …

…slots, like:

User = Meta.new do

   def email=(v)
     # ...
   end

end

User.new(:email => "yrashk@idbns.com") or user.update_slots(:email => "yrashk@idbns.com") will pass control to User#email= instead of saving it directly
to the slot.
