Dropping Julia 0.4 support

2016-09-16 v0.5.0

Updated packing and unpacking macro syntax according to PR #13. Before @pack! was supported for immutable (via invoking reconstruct), this has been dropped.

Also, @unpack performance on Julia-0.4 will be sub-par with this change as it is type unstable.

This is a breaking change!

end
aa = A(3,4)
@unpack aa, b # does: b = aa.b
