Summary: Run rspec on rails without a db

Initial Comment:
We need to be able to run the specs without the database.  We have no model objects in some of our projects, therefore, no use for the db.

Message:
Fixed in /branches/0.9-dev#1689

If you remove config/database.yml from your Rails project, the various spec:* rake tasks will no longer depend on db:test:prepare.

Further, you should tell Rails not to use AR in your config/environment.rb file

Message:
Now that we have a cleaner configuration model, we should add a configuration option to do this:

Spec::Runner.configure do |config|
  config.use_database = false
end

(or something like that)
