Add __parent reference to embedded models
Add a new hidden property `__parent` that's automatically set on all
instances of embedded models.

For backwards compatibility, this feature is not enabled by default.
You can turn it on by adding the following line to `server/server.js`
file:

    app.registry.modelBuilder.settings.parentRef = true;

Support nested properties with class type
When converting plain-data object values into model instances,
correctly handle the case where the constructor functions is a class
constructor and must be invoked via `new`.

Set model constructor name to model name
Rework the code building model constructors to leverage `Function` class
and dynamically emit a constructor function named after the model.

Before this change, all model classes were called "ModelConstructor",
which made debugging difficult.

After this change, a model class for model "User" is called "User.

Because not all valid model names are also valid JavaScript identifiers,
we implement a simple sanitization technique (replacing characters like
"-", "." and ":" with underscore "_") and fall back to legacy
"ModelConstructor" if the model name is still not a valid JS identifier.
