removes the second argument of the AS const_missing hook

Ruby does not pass the nesting to const_missing (unfortunately).
That second argument was there in case that changed, Yehuda
sent a patch to MRI

    http://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/2740

but there is not much movement there and Matz told me in
Amsterdam there was no immediate plan to pass the nesting.
So let's go back to implement what happens now, and if
in the future we get the nesting then we will adapt this.

Double-checked this with Mr Katz.
