v1.1.0, "sleep away the afternoon"

- much more efficient processing of schema updates storage, especially when dealing with large schemas.
- @lileeyao added --exclude-columns and the --jdbc_options features
- @lileeyao added --jdbc_options
- can now blacklist entire databases
- new kafka key format available, using a JSON array instead of an object
- bugfix: unsigned integer columns were captured incorrectly.  1.1 will
  recapture the schema and attempt to correct the error.
