[svn-r29782] Purpose: Code improvement

Description:
    - Removed ArrayType::rank and ArrayType::dimensions and modified the methods
      ArrayType::getArrayNDims and ArrayType::getArrayDims to always call the
      C functions to get the rank and dimensions.
    - Overloaded ArrayType::getArrayNDims and ArrayType::getArrayDims to provide
      const version and marked the non-const version deprecated.
Platforms tested:
    Linux/32 2.6 (jam)
    Linux/64 (platypus)
    Darwin (osx1010test)
