When Clojure starts it will search for files named data_readers.clj at the 
root the Java classpath. Every library JAR can have its own 
data_readers.clj and they will all be loaded and merged.

Be careful with this: if there's a conflict in data reader bindings, 
Clojure won't start. If your library provides a data reader tag that other 
users may want to override in their applications, don't put it in the 
data_readers.clj file in your library. On the other hand, if your library 
uses data readers in its own sources, then it needs to include them in its 
data_readers.clj file.
