association methods are now generated in modules

Instead of generating association methods directly in the model
class, they are generated in an anonymous module which
is then included in the model class. There is one such module
for each association. The only subtlety is that the
generated_attributes_methods module (from ActiveModel) must
be forced to be included before association methods are created
so that attribute methods will not shadow association methods.
