Add createModelFromConfig and configureModel()
Add new API allowing developers to split the model definition and configuration into two steps: 1. Build models from JSON config, export them for re-use: ```js var Customer = loopback.createModelFromConfig({ name: 'Customer', base: 'User', properties: { address: 'string' } }); ``` 2. Attach existing models to a dataSource and a loopback app, modify certain model aspects like relations: ```js loopback.configureModel(Customer, { dataSource: db, relations: { /* ... */ } }); ``` Rework `app.model` to use `loopback.configureModel` under the hood. Here is the new usage: ```js var Customer = require('./models').Customer; app.model(Customer, { dataSource: 'db', relations: { /* ... */ } }); ``` In order to preserve backwards compatibility, `app.model(name, config)` calls both `createModelFromConfig` and `configureModel`.
