Polly Engine #1

I just downloaded this chrome extension to perform text-to-speech via Chrome using Polly. Great job! Would you be interested in adding the 'Engine' as an option to the awsAIServices.js synthensizeSpeech function? It uses 'standard' by default, but I would to use 'neural' for a more natural sounding voice. Thanks!

FYI - I downloaded your extension, updated aws-sdk to the current version (2.996.0) and added (Engine: 'neural',) as a parameter in the 'synthesizeSpeech' function to make it work. Allowing the user to easily swap engines (standard or neural) and even change the voice could be a great addition. Thanks again!
