Allow whitelisted model attribute properties

[danielsharvey]

Sails version: v1.0.2
Node version: v10.2.1
NPM version: 6.1.0
DB adapter name: sails-mysql
DB adapter version: 1.0.0
Operating system: MacOS 10.13.5

This appears to be a minor regression of behaviour from Sails v0.12.14, whose underlying waterline v0.11.12 allows the use of validations.ignoreProperties[] configuration, which I have used to configure custom behaviour in custom blueprints.

I have proposed a pull request to reintroduce this behaviour:

Allow model attribute properties whitelisted in config/models.js: validations.ignoreProperties[].

This was previously possible in waterline v0.11.12. See waterline/lib/waterline/core/validations.js, specifically line 64-66.

Happy to submit PR for documentation update if this is accepted.

Please advise if this should be handled another way.

Hi danielsharvey, I would say go ahead and make this a PR (a request indeed) and explain the reasoning in the Conversation section of the PR.

@danielsharvey Actually you might want to hold off on that, here's some background as to why:

Also here's how custom validation rules work in Sails v1.x.
