Title: Map (PUT) action for resourceful routes

A bare-bones proposal to support a PUT request on resources:

PUT /photos

This would result in a call to PhotosController#map. The purpose of this is to create a new convention for bulk updates on collections. The obvious corresponding database action would be update_all.

This implementation is by no means complete and only meant as a starting point for discussion.
Suggestions and comments are welcome.
