support card content migrations+discussion
There is talk of building an eventual api that will be more in the style of federation / DeckoSystems, etc. This baby step is needed in a hurry to get Wagn 1.11 out because of migrations needed then. Doing this now with current card API should keep us from having to make people do baby steps forward (and will provide test cases for whatever future data patterns arise)
So, can we load them with the JSON API? Hmmm, should link that ticket, but is it a ticket or still an idea? Probably should be a ticket since we have code in the queue.

Hmm, I think we could, we've done yaml in the past, which is consistent railsy data practices, but this would be more exciting, at least in the long term.
Of course we need more than object notation for the migration themselves; I don't think we're ready to start specifying merge strategies in JSON or anything. But we could load the basic card data that way. (Usually we develop the data on en.dwagn.org, so this could involve import and export)

I got the following working:
- rake wagn:migrate_cards runs migrations in db/migrate_cards (tracked in schema_migration_cards table)
- rails generate card_migration creates a migration there
To complete this ticket, we need to:
- add rake wagn:migrate to run all migrations
- handle stamping
Doesn't this need updating? Trying to find info on wagn generate support for these and what I need to make work. Some tests would be nice for wagn command generally, no?
this is a closed ticket. we do need to add documentation, though. (There's almost no documentation for mod developers in general)
