Hi,
in preparation for the changes to the pointer API outlined in [1], 
here's a cleanup that removes the methods from the Pointer interface 
that are only required to support code generation.
These methods are now moved into a new class, called RuntimeSupport. 
I've tweaked the HeaderImplGenerator class to perform indirect access to 
these method, through a bunch of static MH fields (this is to avoid 
access errors due to module boundaries).
