Attributes on Steroids for Plain Old Ruby Objects

Virtus::ClassMethods#inherited

Setup descendants' own Attribute-accessor-method-hosting modules

Descendants inherit Attribute accessor methods via Ruby's inheritance
mechanism: Attribute accessor methods are defined in a module included
in a superclass. Attributes defined on descendants add methods to the
descendant's Attributes accessor module, leaving the superclass's method
table unaffected.
