Description

With the current interface, a CompilerConfiguration cannot be modified in a version independent manner because the user code must know all of the properties in the class. This improvement adds a copy constructor so that an existing CompilerConfiguration can be duplicated so that the user code can then set the particular properties they need to.

As part of this improvement, a 'getConfigurationProperties' method is added which returns a Properties value that is suitable for the CompilerConfiguration(Properties) constructor.

While coding this change a bug was uncovered. The "groovy.recompile.minimumInterval" property is misspelled as "groovy.recompile.minimumIntervall" (note the extra "l"). That is fixed by the patch as well.

A fairly thorough test case is included to ensure no harm is done by this change.
