Create a 'display' helper as a model concern

This method would take the place of the display_hash (and similar) methods in use, concentrating that logic into a single place to ensure consistency. The display logic would be dependent on the return type of the method passed in as an argument.
The syntax would be record.display(:amount)
and the code
Pseudo-code for the method would be
def display(method)
value = self.public_send(method)
case value.class
when Float
number_with_precision(value, delimiter: ',', precision: 2)
when Boolean
# something
end
end
I could also add a line to check if an attribute has a 'display' method i.e. display_validated
and call that instead of using the case block.

I created this as a helper during #27 that will work just as well and be more clear to other users.
