defualt parameters from static method or fields not implemented

[GoogleCodeExporter]

The code in Param.java claims that two of the possible sources of default 
values are a static method or a static filed named xxxxValues. However, the 
code in Parameter.java doesn't implement this.

Either it should be implemented, or the documentation in Param.java changed.

Please confirm our fix is to fix the documentation :-)

(It was a misfeature.)

The feature sounds cool... but it turns out I didn't need it for my case... and 
on reflection, since values need to be able to be parsed from string command 
line arguments, there really isn't any downside to specifying them as strings 
in the @Param decoration.

So yeah, fix should be to correct the documentation!
