Allow other base directories than "docs"

[klawr]

GitHub Pages allows for 3 different sources in the repository.

• gh-pages branch
• master branch
• master branch /docs folder

If i am not mistaken microjam assumes that we want to operate entirely in /docs:

https://github.com/goessner/microjam/blob/94e1cd060b5a36e4970348e2475ac413e9d17ea9/extension.js#L96-L106

As the property of microjam in the package.json is mandatory anyway, the respective behavior could be given as e.g:

{
    "name": "first",
    "description": "My first web page using microjam",
    "version": "0.1.0",
    "author": "it's me",
    "microjam": {
         "dist": "docs"
     }
}

Whereas src could be any path, given the user more freedom to decide which style of GitHub Pages he/she wants to use, if at all.

... in fact I was thinking about exactly that (gh-pages branch seems to be outdated)

But I decided to start quite restrictive, as each level of freedom for the user adds another level of complexity and is one more source of bugs.

So wait and see how intense the user pressure is.
