Holy fruity beverage Batman! I'm taking the plunge and switching to Guice for

dependency resolution and management. Things are currently in a state of
transition, but the important patterns have been established and I'll aim to
sweep through all of Narya, Nenya and Vilya in the near future and do
everything properly.

Going through the other million-odd lines of code we have scattered across our
various projects that use these libraries is not something I plan to do, so
we'll be maintaining backward compatibility with the old static member method,
though I hope to strive toward eradication of that usage entirely in MSOY while
we still have a fighting chance.

Given that some of our projects will continue to use the static member method
in perpetuity, I'm not going to @Deprecate those fields because that would fill
their logs with so much spam that they'd have to turn off deprecation warnings
which would make life worse for them. So instead we'll settle for the big scary
comment warning people away from the old bits.
