Allow to change type in mapping (and editing mapping in general) #14

Currently, we can only adjust indexing rules (index or not, search by default). Broader discussion brings the topic of editing a mapping in general. Like, what if we want a field to be an "object" ? This would change the actual JSON structure (no inner-keys). Maybe an "Expert" mode where the whole JSON mapping could be edited in a text area ?

Added a dropdown list with all core types from ES6, as well as a textarea for manual edit for advance usage. https://github.com/biothings/biothings.api/commit/ff34ff3195fb41d93fc38192c63123647855502c
