Add support for specifying a namespace for controllers

[serra]

When working with Areas , we can have two or more controllers with the same name in an mvc app, which leads to the following exception when using MapNavigationRoute:

Multiple types were found that match the controller named 'Home'. This can happen if the route that 
services this request ('') does not specify namespaces to search for a controller that matches the 
request. If this is the case, register this route by calling an overload of the 'MapRoute' method that 
takes a 'namespaces' parameter.

To specify routes, we need to be able to specify a namespace, which should be added to newRoute.DataTokens["Namespaces"]. Implemented this the same way as System.Web.Mvc.RouteCollectionExtensions.MapRoute(... string[] namespaces ...).

I noticed some commented code MapNavigationRoute<T> that wanted to do something with the namespace of the controller. Maybe we can combine this?

Is this what you'd like to see? I've merged in your changes up until c1a1ffc9b153656c70ad5f0a51d55f47a025912f (child route support).
