defprotocol doesn't resolve tag classnames, this results in exceptions being thrown when the declared protocol uses as a tag an imported class that is not imported in the namespace that uses it.

CompilerException java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Unable to resolve classname: ISeq, compiling:(NO_SOURCE_PATH:4:33)

- My only hesitancy with this patch is making the tagToClass public and reaching into it from core_deftype - this means that call into the Compiler needs to remain open forever as an api.
