Conditional bindings for filters

Usually, a filter is applied to a few actions. With the MVC3 extension for Ninject this is done by adding a condition to the filter binding. The available overloads of When are a bit different than for other Ninject bindings. Below you find examples of the available When overloads.

```text
// LogFilter is applied to controllers that have the LogAttribute
this.BindFilter<LogFilter>(FilterScope.Controller, 0)
     .WhenControllerHas<LogAttribute>()
     .WithConstructorArgument("logLevel", Level.Info);
 
// LogFilter is applied to actions that have the LogAttribute
this.BindFilter<LogFilter>(FilterScope.Action, 0)
     .WhenActionHas<LogAttribute>()
     .WithConstructorArgument("logLevel", Level.Info);
 
// LogFilter is applied to all actions of the HomeController
this.BindFilter<LogFilter>(FilterScope.Action, 0)
     .WhenControllerTypeIs<HomeController>()
     .WithConstructorArgument("logLevel", Level.Info);
 
// LogFilter is applied to all Index actions
this.BindFilter(FilterScope.Action, 0)
     .When((controllerContext,  actionDescriptor) =>
                actionDescriptor.ActionName == "Index")
     .WithConstructorArgument("logLevel", Level.Info);
```
