Ignore stop words

[alexcroox]

If I ask a question "what is exampleword" I get lots of results back because they have the words "what" and "is" included. If I could ignore stop words then it would only return results relating to "exampleword" which is intended.

Not ideal but for now I modified the plugin to this:

var stopWords = ['a','the','how'...etc];

doScoring: function(v) {
      var   t = this,
          res = [],
            w = [];

      if (!v || !v.length) { return res; }
      v = ""+((t.caseSensitive)?v:v.toLowerCase());
      w = (""+v).split(' ');

     // MY EDIT HERE --------------
      $.each(stopWords, function(index) {
        var findMatch = w.indexOf(stopWords[index]);
        if(findMatch > -1)
          w.splice(findMatch, 1);
      });

I got the stop word array from https://raw.githubusercontent.com/huned/node-stopwords/master/english.js

@alexcroox That's a good suggestion! Feel free to submit a PR if you like (I'm not sure when I could get to this). We should probably make the array of words an option for the plugin.
