Fancy function derivative features

Functions (low priority, could allow automatic linearization w.r.t. functions not in a finite element space?):
- (low) Attaching derivatives to Functions:
It would be nice if the user could supply the derivative of a Function as another Function.
Maybe we can do:
Df = Function(element2)
f = Function(element1, gradient=Df)
and perhaps for linearization:
g = Function(element3)
df_dg = Function(element2)
f = Function(element1, derivatives = { g: df_dg })
then you could do:
F = derivative(f**2*dx, f)
J = derivative(F, f)
even if f is defined on a quadrature element.

This is now implemented as a mapping passed to derivative() instead.
