Add before_commit hooks

These hooks run after validating the whole graph, but before closing the
transaction. Helpful for things like "contact this service after saving,
but rollback if the service is down".

Moves the existing sideload hooks to the same place (the previous
behavior was to fire before validations).

Implemented by a Hook accumulator that uses Thread.current. I've tried
this a few different ways but recursive functions that return a mash of
objects seem to add a lot of complexity to the code for no real reason.
The premise of registering hooks during a complex process, then calling
those hooks later, is simpler.

This does add a small amount of duplication between the create/update
actions and the destroy action. This is because we're currently not
supporting DELETE requests with a body (nested deletes) so the
processing logic is different. Think this can be assimliated in a
separate PR.
