create `:recipient` non-core role? #148

The roles page currently suggests :ARG2 or :beneficiary for recipients.

In Claire's example, "She slid me the change", she used :destination, but noted that this construction is really limited to recipients.

Workshop participants suggested that maybe we should allow :recipient for person-destinations. We'd then have to decide what to do with benefactives ("I baked a cake for Martha")—is that a recipient or a beneficiary?
