methods: (also) take named parameters #123

Please implement that methods can take not only lists of parameters but also named parameters.

I think that Perl 6 style named parameters would be good, they do increase the complexity of the sig parsing though so I would like to wait until the core sub-sig lands so we can piggyback as much as possible on that.

I think this should not be part of the first round of changes, because it will require a lot more effort - it needs changes not just to method signature parsing, but also at the places that methods are called, and that's a much higher level of complexity.

Agreed, this can be a "later" thing.
