The can.Model.models arrayName should be configurable like observable's 'id' property

http://donejs.com/docs.html#!can.Model.static.models

{
    count: 15000 //how many total items there might be
    data: [{id: 1, name : "justin"},{id:2, name: "brian"}, ...]
}

The 'data' array name is currently hardcoded in the source code. This could be a configurable property & is very easy to implement.

Suggestions on what to call it? We should probably do the same thing for model instances.

can.Model({
  modelsAttr: 'recipes',
  modelAttr: 'recipe'
},{})

Could we just do it similar to the AJAX method converters (where it converts { findAll : "GET /todos" } into a findAll method) and have the string be the data attribute:

can.Model({
  models: 'recipes',
  model: 'recipe'
},{});

Will assign a models function that uses the "recipes" as the data attribute.

I like that idea ...

It still needs to be documented.
