Attribute API 2

**NOTE:** This RFC is incomplete, the specification of the new feature is TBD.

This RFC describes a new attributes API to be added alongside the current one. The goals of this new API are:

* Separate desired and observed state.
* Structure the syntax in a way that "trainwreck" errors
  (`NoMethodError` for `[]` on `nil`) can be avoided.
* Structure the syntax in a way that attribute tracing can be
  implemented simply.
* Separate node-specific persistent storage from
  cookbook/role/environment attributes.
* Structure the syntax in a way that can be implemented efficiently.

This RFC is adapted from https://github.com/opscode/chef-rfc/pull/9 which is retracted.
Also another monkeywrench is that if we are doing stuff with dotted paths, n[['foo', 'bar']] it terrrrrrible. But I don't think `n(['foo', 'bar']) = 1` is allowed syntax?
