Support arXiv preprint numbers #15

doi2bib already supports DOIs and PMCIDs, but arXiv prepreints are becoming more and more common in many fields. Support for arXiv paper identifiers such as 1503.04822 and quant-ph/0611264 as well would be great.

We added support for arXiv IDs when a DOI is available. I'm aware that most publications on arXiv don't have a DOI. I'll try to figure out if it's possible to query reasonably standardised BibTeX entries directly through the arXiv API.
