Automatically detect relation verb based on media type and relation name

#25

According to REST, our framework should detect the verb to be used by a relation access through its current media type + relation name definition. In order to do so, we should allow our users to:

  entry.search.access("name" => "rest")

Which would pick the correct verb for "search" using the media type that "entry" was built upon. Our representation would define verbs for each relation and could guess other ones (see other ticket) based on OPTIONS.

module Restfulie::Common::Representation
class Atom

 ...
def verb_for(rel)
  {"search" => :Post}[rel]
end

end end
