Continuously collect output from background threads

The PowerShell.BeginInvoke<TInput, TOutput>(PSDataCollection<TInput>,
 PSDataCollection<TOutput>) method[1] is used to collect output from
each job into a buffer. This can be read whilst the jobs are still
running. Being able to return partial results is particularly useful for
long running background threads, such as Invoke-UserHunter -Poll.

PowerShell 2.0 doesn't play nicely with generic methods. The technique
described in [2] is used to allow this version of BeginInvoke() to be
used.
