Fix regression in emission of primitive metadata in plugins that I think was introduced in 3222 or there-asbnouts. The bug is when vmClass si set then a selector must begin with prim to have metadata generated/ I *think* I assigned vmClass to compute accessor depth correctly for plugin primitives around this time, but I'm not sure.
The fix is to have VMPluginCodeGenerator override methodNeedsMetadata: and not insist that the selector begin with 'prim'.
This affects the following plugins: ClipboardExtendedPlugin (primitives begin with io) B3DPlugin/Squeak3D (primitives begin with b3d)
But in looking at this I notice that VectorEnginePlugin has no metadata either. So a few plugins need regenerating.
