GetCallSignature() static private méthode

Gets the best CallSignature from a MetaAction. The MetaAction should be either a Python InvokeBinder, or a DLR InvokeAction or CreateAction. For Python we can use a full-fidelity
static private GetCallSignature ( DynamicMetaObjectBinder action ) : CallSignature
action System.Dynamic.DynamicMetaObjectBinder
