[Dbix-class] Useful patch to DBIx::Class::Schema::Loader

[Ben Tilly]

I'm looking for feedback on a patch to DBIx::Class::Schema::Loader.
If people like it, I would like to see this added to the next release.

The patch adds a relationship_name_map argument to
DBIx::Class::Schema::Loader::Base to give people control over what
names will be given to relationships.  A comment in the source
suggests that this was supposed to be implemented, but that never
seems to have happened.

As implemented, this argument can be a coderef or a hashref.  If it is
a hashref, you can do things like:

  {
      bar =3D> "baz",
      Foo =3D> {
          bar =3D> "blat",
      },
  }

which will cause relationships that would have been called bar to be
called baz, except in class Foo where it will be called blat instead.

If a coderef you are given the moniker for the class being built, the
name of the relationship accessor, and then a hashref with more
detailed information.

This patch includes documentation and unit tests.
