[TYPO3-extbase-kickstarter] Lost modifications when resaving extension in roundtrip mode (0.9.0)

[Rens Admiraal]

Hi Christian,

If you set the TCA files to 'merge', and save the extension again, a 
marker is added to all TCA files. It's the '## KICKSTARTER DEFAULTS END 
TOKEN - Everything BEFORE this line is overwritten with the defaults of 
the extension builder' line. All code above this line is completely 
managed by the extension builder and will be overwritten on save. 
Everything below is saved.

So, if you for example want to change a field configuration, you could 
add a line below the token like:


## KICKSTARTER DEFAULTS END TOKEN - Everything BEFORE this line is 
overwritten with the defaults of the extension builder
$TCA['table']['columns']['col']['config'] = array(....);
