Renaming to CouchRest Model

Refactored basic directory structure.
Moved to ActiveSupport for Validations and Callbacks.
Cleaned up older code, and removed support for text property types.

+        # proxy will cause the matching property array, in this case "group_ids", to
+        # be kept in sync.
+        #
+        # Any manual changes made to the collection ids property (group_ids), unless replaced, will require
+        # a reload of the CollectionOfProxy for the two sets of data to be in sync:

+        # Of course, saving the parent record will store the collection ids as they are
+        # found.
+        #
+        # The CollectionOfProxy supports the following array functions, anything else will cause
