Julian Hyde updated CALCITE-3328:
---------------------------------
    Description: 
In quite a few places we have immutable config classes, and because they are 
immutable we have builders. It all gets quite verbose.

I propose to add a utility class, {{ImmutableBeans}}, that is able to generate 
an implementation of a given interface. For example,
{code:java}
interface MyBean {
  @Property  int getAge();
  MyBean withAge(int age);

  @Property String getName();
  MyBean withName(String name);
}

MyBean b = ImmutableBeans.create(MyBean.class);
assertThat(b.withAge(37).withName("Fred").getAge(), is(37));
{code}

We could replace {{SqlParser.ConfigBuilder}}, {{Frameworks.ConfigBuilder}}, 
{{RelBuilder.ConfigBuilder}}, quite a few of the associated {{Config}} classes, 
and perhaps quite a few fluent classes that we use in tests.
