Changes:
* I add postgres_databaseutils_test.go for containing all utilities for mocking the database.
* I put appName as a required parameter passed to the New() since it is needed to form the namespace column name.
* I add GetMaxInterval() since it might be needed by the consumer and the test.
* I move the SQL string package variables directly into the function that need it so we could avoid maintenance nightmare in the future.
Add interval flush for DDB checkpoint
* Allow checkpointing on a specified interval
* Add shutdown method to checkpoint to force flush
Minor changes:
* Swap order of input params for checkpoint (app, table)
Addresses: https://github.com/harlow/kinesis-consumer/issues/39
The Checkpoint functionality is an important part of the library and
previously it wasn't obvious that the Consumer was defaulting to Redis
for this functionality.
* Add Checkpoint as required param for new consumer
Major changes:
* Remove intermediate batching of kinesis records
* Call the callback func with each record
* Use functional options for config
