This commits rewrites missing_presence_validation in a more imperative style with extensive commenting to make it clear why certain actions are performed. The new structure made it simple to correctly handle polymorphic associations: if a polymorphic foreign key is NOT NULL then the detector will suggest making the association as required, instead of suggesting adding validators for the _id and _type column separately.
