Do not automatically decode runtime.RawExtension

Make clients opt in to decoding objects that are stored
in the generic api.List object by invoking runtime.DecodeList()
with a set of schemes. Makes it easier to handle unknown
schema objects because decoding is in the control of the code.

Add runtime.Unstructured, which is a simple in memory
representation of an external object.
