Faster type activation

[ghost]

As per #104, we should probably have a way of quickly creating types with given arguments. Relying on Activator.CreateInstance is okay, but we can do better.

• Chalk up an API for consumption
• Implement
• Unit Tests
• Performance Testing

Proposed API:

    class Activate
    {
        public static object Type(TypeInfo serviceType) => Type(serviceType, _emptyObjectArray);
        public static object Type(TypeInfo serviceType, object arg1) => Type(serviceType, new[] { arg1 });
        public static object Type(TypeInfo serviceType, object arg1, object arg2) => Type(serviceType, new[] { arg1, arg2 });
        public static object Type(TypeInfo serviceType, object arg1, object arg2, object arg3) => Type(serviceType, new[] { arg1, arg2, arg3 });
        public static object Type(TypeInfo serviceType, object arg1, object arg2, object arg3, object arg4) => Type(serviceType, new[] { arg1, arg2, arg3, arg4 });
        public static object Type(TypeInfo serviceType, object[] args) => null;
    }

This would cover the current use cases of Compose. However, there might be need for a generic API in the future, this will be covered as an extension to this API in the future.

I've updated to reflect the currently implemented API. Added a load of basic tests to ensure that it works. Will need to add a lot more to cover things like generics etc, but I should imagine that they will be fine.

Think @danielcirket was interested in some performance stuff? He has some numbers from local benchmarking that will be shared at somepoint. My local tests seem to indicate that the current implementation is faster from a cold start. I still need to think about the use of the concurrent dictionary inside the current implementation also.

WIP Branch

https://github.com/sblackler/compose/pull/1 - Added some basic benchmarks for you @sblackler, super crappy way of doing it, need a better way of doing it to get the output etc, but at least gives an idea of the perf differences so far!

Done the PR to your WIP branch for now, but feel it should be mentioned here too.
