+Set the loader class to be instantiated when L</connection> is called.
+If the classname starts with "::", "DBIx::Class::Schema::Loader" is

in-memory on the fly without any on-disk class files of any
kind. When used with the C<dump_directory> option, you can

Re-scans the database for newly added tables since the initial
load, and adds them to the schema at runtime, including relationships,
etc. Does not process drops or changes.
