Modeled slightly after Converters, allow specifying Converter-like class
for context-based default parameters. e.g.
```py
class Author(CustomDefault):
async def default(self, ctx):
return ctx.author
async def my_command(ctx, user: discord.Member=Author):
...
```
Also adds a few common cases (Author, Channel, Guild) for current
author, ...
With this change CustomDefaults display nicer in help commands and in command.signature
Rename Author to CurrentAuthor and while keeping Author referenced to CurrentAuthor.

Since this isn't merged into the lib yet, probably best not to introduce extra aliases. Anyone depending on this code in it's pre-submitted form should be prepared for it to break (e.g., I'll update my bot in case we do want this rename)
Moved discussion about the actual rename to Rapptz#1849 (comment)
