Rename annotations to remove collisions

                 Key: FELIX-2621
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-2621
             Project: Felix
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: iPOJO
    Affects Versions: iPOJO-1.6.0
            Reporter: Peter Donald
            Priority: Critical
             Fix For: iPOJO-1.8.0


Several annotations are named the same as other annotations or classes in the 
iPojo project. This makes the use of these annotations painful as the classes 
need to be fully qualified.

Example 1:

@Property can either be an annotation marking something to be exported to JMX 
or a config variable. Alternatively annotations could be named @ConfigProperty 
and @JmxProperty. (If this naming occured it would also make sense to rename 
@Method to @JmxMethod).

Example 2:

You annotate a field of type Publisher with the annotation @Publisher. The 
annotation could be something such as @Publishes.
