Have set methods return reference to self
-----------------------------------------

                 Key: THRIFT-540
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-540
             Project: Thrift
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Compiler (Java)
            Reporter: Nathan Marz
            Priority: Minor


Sometimes its useful to be able to make a single or string of modifications to 
a thrift object inline.  Having set methods return a reference to itself allows 
for syntactic sugar like this:

myThriftObject.set_field1(...).set_field2(...)

getObjectFromHelperMethod().set_field2(...)
