hide Message fields

[nikhan]

There are several fields in the Message type that are used by Colony internals, that if modified by a user, could create mayhem.

For instance, if a service could receive messages and change MessageID, Time, ContentType, Topic, etc, and "respond" and who knows where the message would go or what it would do. IMO, any field expressing state within Colony should be hidden or have some kind of getter.

I think getters is a good idea.
