Nick Alexander d88823e7c4 Handle :attribute/_reverse in transactor. Fixes #187
There are two broad approaches:

1) Handle reverse attribute notation dynamically, in the style that
   Datomic does.  This is the most flexible, but it's not a good fit
   given that we produce strongly typed output from the parser.
   Strongly typed input to the transactor has had many benefits, so I
   don't want to roll it back for a relatively unimportant feature
   like reverse notation -- especially not since Mentat does not
   require :db.install/_attribute to modify schema attributes.

2) Handle reverse attribute in the parser itself, so that we can
   produce strongly typed parser output while restricting the input.
   I implemented this first and discovered that it's very difficult to
   give sensible error messages in common cases.

In any case, the bulk of the code is the same between the two
approaches, and I wrote the tests for the dynamic version (with error
output), so that's what I'm rolling with.

This patch preserves the existing indentation, to highlight the
differences.  The next patch will indent.
