Handle structural types with curried methods

- We desugar `x.foo(a1)(a2)` (where the type of `x` is a structural type)
  to:

  ```scala
  (x:selectable).applyDynamic("a", CTa1, CTa2)(a1, a2)
  ```

- Add test cases for implicit and dependant methods

- Rejects all dependant methods used in structural type. They are pretty
  broken currently. Should be fixable
