Change event not raised if you only delete some characters #255

Describe the bug If you add something to the text the change event is raised, but if you only delete some characters it doesn't.

Here's a little pen: https://codepen.io/mokhosh/pen/MWeeRbq?editors=1001

Write something, leave the editor, see the console. Delete some characters, leave the editor, see the console again.

EasyMDE has no internal change event, instead you should subscribe to the change event of the exposed codemirror instance.

const editor = new EasyMDE();
editor.codemirror.on('change', () => { /* do something */ });

I wish there was a way to work with native browser events, since many packages work with those out of the box.

Also, codemirror fires change for what is called input in javascript.
