will_paginate 4.0.0

This release adds only minor new features, but bumps the major version number because some old functionality has been removed due to other frameworks not being maintained anymore. Namely, DataMapper and Merb integrations have been dropped since both projects haven't been maintained in a long while and it's been hard maintaining a test suite for them.
