Fixes #2749
Providing new ways to populate Scrapy items and adding the possibility of having @attr.s decorated Scrappy items.
This PR tries to solve the suggestions presented in issue #2749
Certain arguments need to be passed to the decorator in order to make the decorated class (a subclass of Scrapy Item) compatible with the functioning of Scrapy Items. This is covered in the form of tests in the PR.
At the moment, the passing of default values to the attributes of the class (equivalent to Fields in normal Scrapy Items) is covered, but the passing of other metadata, such as validators, has not been considered.
This PR also covers the dot notation access to the Fields in Scrapy Items.
