overload to avoid date/time (re)calculation
This can be called with cached coupon dates (and it does give quite a performance boost to coupon calculations) but is potentially misleading: by passing the wrong dates, one can ask a 6-months index for a 1-year fixing.
For that reason, we're leaving this method private and we're declaring the IborCoupon class (which uses it) as a friend. Should the need arise, we might promote it to public, but before doing that I'd think hard whether we have any other way to get the same results.
