add note about observer config for rails apps

ActiveModel::Observer and ActiveRecord::Observer have similar
documentation, but a Rails user looking at the ActiveModel version
might not realize that a change to config/application.rb is
required to activate the observer. This change adds a note to
that effect, pointing to the AR version from the AM version.
