Add x seconds of video before motion occurs #62

First of all I must say this is a very good program!! Relatively easy readable as non-python programmer., and with a lot of functionality!!

It would be great if you could add following functionality:

A configurable amount of seconds of video before motion occurs; now it is only 10 seconds AFTER the motion occurred. I have seen this functionality in https://github.com/pageauc/pi-motion-lite/blob/master/pi-motion-lite_2.py

In the ideal world I would also like following (maybe this should be splitted into separate issues)

smart motion mask; functionality like it is implemented in the linux motion program (see http://www.lavrsen.dk/foswiki/bin/view/Motion/ConfigOptionSmartMaskSpeed)
instructions on how to install your program under Arch linux (on raspberry pi (zero) of course). I did not managed to install all python modules, and was struggling between Python2.7 and Python3.
