Make reflected definitions easy to access [10922358]

Given a reflected function like this: [<ReflectedDefinition(true)>] let foo (x) = ... I would like to be able to get the reflected definition like this: foo.TryGetReflectedDefinition() instead of ugly code like this (note how I had to write the method name as a string): let fooType = foo.GetType().DeclaringType.GetMethod("foo") let fooExpr = Expr.TryGetReflectedDefinition(fooType)

Using a quotation <@ foo @> will make it easier to accurately get the method name. I will decline this: the existing mechanism seems good enough considering this is relatively rare.
