This changes with syntax from (with [[x (expr)] (expr)] ...) to (with
[x (expr) (expr)] ...). Should have no ill side effects apart from the
syntax change.
Closes#852.

defclass now has a new syntax:
(defclass Name [BaseList]
[property value
property value] ;; optional
(defn method [self]
self.property))
Anything after the optional property list (which will be translated to a
setv within the class context) will be added to the class body. This
allows one to have side effects and complex expressions within the class
definition.
As a side effect, defining methods is much more friendly now!
Closes#850.

This code is heavily, *heavily* based off of Guillermo Vaya
(willyfrog)'s work... instead of defining its own keyword arg though, it
uses the "standard" :kwarg type, which is the main difference from
willyfrog's original branch.
Included tests and some documentation in the tutorial.
Also documented "apply" separately as an example of reproducing
*args and **kwargs.
- Inline code is written using ``double backticks``
- Italicized text uses *asterisks* rather than `single backticks`
- Function parameters are italicized rather than written as inline code
- Standardized capitalization of Hy, Lisp(s), and Python.
- Added periods to the end of list items.
- Use inline code blocks for inline code.
- Stripped trailing whitespace.
- Other miscellaneous grammatical changes.
The new and improved (import) can handle all cases import-as and
import-from did, so drop the latter two from the language. To do this,
the import builtin had to be changed a little: if there's a single
import statement to return, return it as-is, otherwise return a list of
imports.
