[development] Pathauto scaleability - path column in node / usertable

[Jeff Eaton]

I had to do something like this in VotingAPI -- I store everything as
'content_id' and 'content_type', with content_type generally
corresponding to the name of the table that holds the data in question.

If we were to standardize on something for this, it could be nice.
