PropertyExpressionEngine is changed to derived from a new class
PropertyExpressionContainer, which is in turn derives from
PropertyXLinkContainer. This makes PropertyExpressionEngine a link type
property that is capable of external linking. It now uses the unified
link property APIs for dependency management and tracking of object
life time, re-labeling, etc.
ObjectIdentifier is modified to support sub-object reference, but is
not exposed to end-user, because expression syntax is kept mostly
unchanged, which will be submitted in future PR. There is, however,
one small change in expression syntax (ExpressionParser.y) to introduce
local property reference to avoid ambiguity mentioned in
FreeCAD/FreeCAD#1619
Modified Expression/ExpressionModifier interface to support various link
property API for link modification.

diff to py3-branch will remain in the following files in src/App:
- ExtensionContainer.cpp
- FeaturePythonPyImp.h +.inl
most likely these files depend on Tools and Base
* Refactored code; moved mutable fields into a separate inner class.
* Added resolvedProperty to ResolveResults class.
* Set resolved document name, even if it does not resolve correctly, so we can give a better error message later.
* If the document name is explicitly set, and it does not resolve, don't try any further.
* If document name is set, use that instead of the ObjectIdentifier's owner when looking up the document object.
