okfn/webstore — Issue #43: Support explicit setting column types

At the moment all column are strings. Want to support numbers etc. This would also address #25.

Two possible approaches (complementary) to setting types described in #27. This ticket is about allow setting of column type explicitly prior to load of data.

On way in all values are cast to column type and raise error if cannot cast correctly.

Question:

* Do we support types other than sql types (e.g. json "type"?)
