Joshua Clayton 7f31ba9239 Include DatabaseCleaner usage when demoing FactoryGirl.lint
Because built factories create associated records, the database may not
be empty when the suite is run. This encourages developers to start
DatabaseCleaner and clean after linting is complete to ensure a clean
database.
