[platform-core-dev] Breaking API change: IMarker.GENERATED_BY


org.eclipse.core.resources introduced a new IMarker.GENERATED_BY attribute in 3.3 M3. After discussion with the originator, it turns out this name doesn't properly capture the intended meaning of the attribute.  This attribute will be renamed to IMarker.SOURCE_ID to better reflect its meaning.  I have added the new SOURCE_ID attribute, and deprecated the GENERATED_BY attribute.  If you have begun using the IMarker.GENERATED_BY attribute, please switch to the new SOURCE_ID attribute.  The GENERATED_BY attribute will be deleted before the 3.3 M5 build.
