0.16.0 - The one with smaller numbers

[justinvdm]

0.15.0 came with an upgrade to copycat which made hash collisions less likely - in other words, it made it significantly likely for two different input values in your database to share the same output value returned by Copycat

However, 0.15.0 also accidentally made copycat.int() and copycat.float() generate very large numbers (e.g. 1.994546950711818e+38). These large numbers are less useful for common use cases, so we've now changed copycat.int() and copycat.float() to generate smaller numbers (for e.g. 8103614357209322), which the new maximum being Number.MAX_SAFE_INTEGER.

note: This will change the column values for any new snapshots created (either on app.snaplet.dev, or locally with snaplet snapshot capture) if those columns are making use of copycat.int() or copycat.float() and no max option was given.

Other bug fixes

• In order to restore snapshots, snaplet currently needs superuser privileges. However, before this release, we would still try to perform the restore, and end up failing. In this release, we change the snaplet cli's behaviour - we first check whether we have the superuser privileges we need before trying to do the restore.
