Be more explicit about Administrate dependencies

Merged Administrator requested to merge gw-explicit-asset-dependencies into master

Created by: gracewashere

Fixes #173 (closed)

Problem:

Administrate depends on the asset pipeline and several gems that are not defined in administrate.gemspec.

When host applications don't have these implicit dependencies installed (for example, if their app is a simple API server), they'll run into errors out of the box.

Solution:

  • Move more gems into administrate.gemspec as explicit dependencies.
  • Remove unnecessary gems from the Gemfile to cut back the noise.
