Add support for PostgreSQL data types: hstore, array, json, etc

[gangster]

Support for the PostgreSQL data types would be a nice addition to this library, IMHO. See: http://edgeguides.rubyonrails.org/active_record_postgresql.html

Thank you:) Would you like to give it a try? It should be fairly easy to extend the field handler to handle those types.

See https://github.com/theodorton/yard-activerecord/blob/develop/lib/yard-activerecord/fields/field_handler.rb

Yeah, I just got it working. I'll be submitting a PR a little later =)

Is there a way to get this working when the app doesn't have a schema.rb file? I use structure.sql dumps instead because not everything in schema.rb is supported by my usage of Postgres.

@xtagon: I've been putting of rewriting this with a 2.0 version that will use runtime introspection to generate the documentation. When/if that goes live this will remove the dependency on schema.rb.

If you want to help contribute, let me know and we can discuss next steps.

@theodorton I'd be happy to help out. I can't commit to anything crazy right now but I'd definitely do testing and stuff like that. Feel free to e-mail me directly if you want to go over things.
