When creating a CreateXxx(...) method for a simple table type,
enum-type fields with a non-zero default must have an explicit
cast for the respective argument default value, because in C#,
there is an implicit cast from int to an enum only for 0.
Also, added an example of such type into the example monster_test
type, so that we test this feature.
When accessing a union field, we should return the same object type
as was given to the method, i.e. the parameter should have a generic
type for any Table-derived type. This way, we do not need to make
superfluous casts (which also reduce type safety) like
var myUnionType = (MyUnionType)buff.GetUnionField(new MyUnionType());
when we can do just
var myUnionType = buff.GetUnionField(new MyUnionType());

In C#, plain field accessors should not be nonparametric methods
but should be standard property getters.
The accessor methods with parameters were renamed to `GetXxx`
because a method cannot be named identically to a property.
Also, `ByteBuffer.Position`, `FlatBufferBuilder.Offset` and
`FlatBufferBuilder.DataBuffer` are now properties instead
of nonparametric accessor methods, for more idiomatic C# style.
This is a breaking change, all client C# code accessing these
fields needs to be changed (i.e. remove those `()` or add the
`Get` prefix).

If an IDL file uses DOS-style EOLs (CR+LF), line comments need to
ignore the second linebreak character, otherwise, as is currently
the case, the parsed documentation comment includes a trailing `\r`
character, which is then output verbatim into the output source
code by flatc.

Enums should not be (badly) emulated with classes in C# but should
use native C# enums instead. Java implementation made an explicit
choice not to use the (more complex) Java enums, but C# enums are
just light-weight syntactic coating over integral types.
Fixes issue #171.
