Remove the BCL Parse/TryParse/ToString(...) static format/parse methods #87

Description

@GoogleCodeExporter
See proposal in https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/noda-time/cFYJlJfITOQ.  
In summary: we currently have two ways to format and parse text: the 
pattern-based API, which is strongly-typed and pretty straightforward, and the 
BCL IFormatInfo-based API, which is underdocumented and confusing.  (There are 
other problems as well; see the post.)

Assuming no objections, we should remove all the static Parse/TryParse methods 
and trim down the ToString overloads to two: the parameterless one and the one 
used for IFormattable.

We'll also need to update the user guide.
