This PR adds support for custom property naming strategies to the serializer and provides a built-in NameConverter using this new system: (CamelCase to underscore).
It handles normalization and denormalization (convert `fooBar` to `foo_bar` when serializing, then from `foo_bar` to `fooBar` when deserializing). It also has a flag to convert only some attributes.
The `setCamelizedAttributes()` is deprecated in favor of this new method (more flexible, allows to rename all attributes of a class and support deserialization) and now uses it internally.

This PR is mainly a refactoring. It move up the common code of `PorpertyNormalizer` and `GetSetMethodNormalizer` into `AbstractNormalizer`.
It also adds a news feature: the ability to use an existing object instance for denormalization:
```php
$dummy = new GetSetDummy();
$dummy->setFoo('foo');
$obj = $this->normalizer->denormalize(
array('bar' => 'bar'),
'GetSetDummy',
null,
array('object_to_populate' => $dummy)
);
// $obj and $dummy are references to the same object
```
