[IronPython] AddReference to Silverlight toolkit assemblies

[Lukas Cenovsky]

Thanks. It works for me know. I don't remember exactly what I did wrong 
but probably I forgot to pack System.Windows.Controls.dll form SL SDK 
into SLToolkit.zip and it is probably referenced from 
System.Windows.Controls.Data.dll .
