Corrects DoctrineModule classes to use zend-hydrator

DoctrineModule zend-hydrator

, _(*1)

** This is a Patch Repository **, _(*2)

Since the zendframework/zend-stdlib hydrators were moved into their own repository, zendframework/zend-hydrator, the DoctrineModule repository has not been updated to correctly use the new library. Through many discussions on the issue @doctrineorm continues to maintain they are in line with zendframework/zend-hydrator because, very unusually, the new library was written to be backwards compatible with zendframework/zend-stdlib but that backwards compatibility was removed from zend-hydrator in later versions leaving developers who want to use Doctrine in their projects which allow for custom hydrators out on a limb., _(*3)

This library overrides the files from DoctrineModule which are broken because they still reference zendframework/zend-stdlib for their hydrators., _(*4)

Finding this patch would not have been possible without the constant support of Toon Verwerft and his zf-doctrine-hydration-module. It took nearly six months to find a solution and he supported my efforts the whole time. Thank you Toon!, _(*11)
