objects aren't deep converted

[ericcj]

if i query for a PFObject that has an array in it the array comes back as a ruby Array, but if the objects inside it are not scalars they are not converted, they just show up as Hashes which I then have to call Parse.parse_json('blah', hash) on. looking at the code, maybe obj is_a? Array doesn't succeed on the top level one cause it hasn't been parsed yet?

Could you please post some more lines with sample code so I can better
understand this?

don't have any code handy, but in general if an array contains dates from Parse they'd show up as an Array of Hashes instead of deep converting into an array of ruby Parse::Dates

This pull adds a test and fixes the problem (among others), but I would recommend bumping the version to 0.13 (skipping 0.12 for other contributors' convenience) since this changes a lot about how objects come back (i was calling Parse.parse_datatype all over the place in my usage, for example, and had to remove that)
