added "secondaryFuzzing" support, to allow customized post-processing

A common problem we've encountered in our applications is that we sometimes need less granularity in recent dates.

For example, a task assigned for today, noon, needs to be displayed as "Today" rather than "23 minutes from now", since most tasks are time-agnostic.

For our own purposes, I've added support for post-processing by supplying a function as a timeago setting:

$.timeago.settings.secondaryFuzzing = function(element, intendedText, difference) {}

Which then applies necessary post-processing based on things such as element class, difference etc.

I figured it might be a useful use-case for the original codebase.

This could be very useful. Is there any progress on this? Thanks.

It's a really simple PR, I don't know what else is necessary -- it basically just gives the option to supply a "last mile processing" step called secondaryFuzzing.

If there is anything you need to change, I'm all ears, but it should be ready to merge in.
