Pass ActionBeanContext or ActionBean to TypeConverterFactory getInstance method
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: STS-701
                 URL: http://www.stripesframework.org/jira/browse/STS-701
             Project: Stripes
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Validation
    Affects Versions: Release 1.5.1
         Environment: All
            Reporter: Matt Brock
            Priority: Minor


It would be extremely helpful to have access to the context or the ActionBean 
in TypeConverters.  This would allow converters to access session-level 
properties, which could allow developers to extend TypeConverters to 
domain-level objects that require authentication.  Currently all this logic has 
to be in the ActionBean, which leads to a lot of code duplication.  

The converters are passed the locale which already comes straight from the 
actionBean.actionBeanContext 
(net.sourceforge.stripes.controller.DefaultActionBeanPropertyBinder, line 755).

As it stands the developer has to extend both the 
DefaultActionBeanPropertyBinder and the DefaultTypeConverterFactory (not the 
end of the world, certainly, but does go against the Stripes "it-just-works" 
way of doing things).
