#columns ⇒ Object

ActiveRecord::Base.columns makes a database connection and caches the

calculated columns hash for the record as @columns.  Since we don't
want to add caching methods until we confirm the presence of a
caching column, and we don't want to force opening a database
connection when the class is loaded, here we intercept and cache
the call to :columns as @acts_as_taggable_on_cache_columns
to mimic the underlying behavior.  While processing this first
call to columns, we do the caching column check and dynamically add
the class and instance methods
FIXME: this method cannot compile in rubinius
