/**
 * Implementation of hook_services_resources().
 * Defines function signatures for resources available to services.
 *
 * Functionally this is very similar to the way hook_menu() works, and in many
 * ways Services can be seen as an abstraction layer on top of hook_menu().
 *
 * @return
 *   An associative array which defines available resources.
 *
 *   The associative array which defines services has five possible top
 *   level keys. The operations array has five possible keys representing
 *   the CRUD operations.
 *
 *     - #api_version
 *     - operations
 *       - create
 *       - retrieve
 *       - update
 *       - delete
 *       - index
 *     - actions
 *     - targeted_actions
 *     - relationships
 *
 *   The #api_version is the services resource API that the resource is written
 *   for. This makes it possible for services to upgrade resource declarations
 *   if the format changes. See services_resource_api_version_info(). If no
 *   version is given then 3001 is assumed. Which is the format used before the
 *   versioning was introduced.
 *
 *   The CRUD functions in 'operations' are pretty self-explanatory. Index is
 *   an extra CRUD-type function that allows you to create pageable lists.
 *
 *   The first four (the CRUD functions) define the indvidual service
 *   callbacks for each function. However 'actions' and 'targeted_actions'
 *   can contain multiple callbacks.
 *
 *   For those familiar with Services 2.x, these callbacks are created
 *   similarly, but the keys have changed around a bit. The following keys
 *   are used to describe a callback.
 *
 *   - help: Text describing what this callback does.
 *   - callback: The name of a function to call when this resource is
 *     requested.
 *   - file: an array describing the file which contains the callback
 *     function
 *   - access callback: The name of a function to call to check whether
 *     the requesting user has permission to access this resource. If not
 *     specified, this defaults to 'user_access'.
 *   - access callback file: an array describing the file which contains the
 *     access callback function.  This attribute only needs to be supplied if
 *     the method callback and the access callback are defined in different
 *     files, for example when a method callback is overridden using
 *     hook_services_resources_alter but the access callback is not
 *   - access arguments: The arguments to pass to the access callback.
 *   - access arguments append: A boolean indicating whether the resource's
 *     arguments should be appended to the access arguments. This can be useful
 *     in situations where an access callback is specific to the particular
 *     item ('edit all nodes' vs 'edit my nodes'). Defaults to FALSE.
 *   - args: an array describing the arguments which should be passed to this
 *     resource when it is called. Each element in the array is an associative
 *     array containing the following keys:
 *
 *     - name: The name of this argument.
 *     - type: The data type of this argument (int, string, array)
 *     - description: Text describing this argument's usage.
 *     - optional: A boolean indicating whether or not this argument is optional.
 *     - source: Where this argument should be retrieved from. This can be
 *       'data' (indicating the POST data), 'param' (indicating the query
 *       string) or 'path' (indicating the url path). In the case of path,
 *       an additional parameter must be passed indicating the index to be used.
 *       In the case of 'data' unless you put things in an array, you will get 
 *       passed to your functions. 'source' => array('data' => 'nid'), will pass
 *       them off as a single variable, 'source' => array('data') will give you 
 *       all argument values to each argument. 
 *     - default value: this is a value that will be passed to the method for
 *       this particular argument if no argument value is passed
 *
 *   A detailed example of creating a new resource can be found at
 *   http://drupal.org/node/783460 and more information about how
 *   REST resources are managed can be found at http://drupal.org/node/783254.
