Make strings url-safe and replace unicode symbols with their name

• respecting RFC 3986
• Comprehensive tests
• No dependencies, except unicode data
• Coerces foreign symbols to their english equivalent
• Works in browser (window.slug) and AMD/CommonJS-flavoured module loaders (except the unicode symbols unless you use browserify but who wants to download a ~2MB js file, right?)

npm install mollusc

const slug = require('mollusc')

slug('i ♥ unicode')
//= i-love-unicode

slug('unicode ♥ is ☢')
//= unicode-love-is-radioactive

slug('i ♥ unicode', {
  replacement: '_'
})
//= i_love_unicode

slug.charmap['♥'] = 'freaking love'
slug('I ♥ UNICODE')
//= i-freaking-love-unicode

slug('☏-NUMBER', {
  lower: false
})
//= telephone-NUMBER

slug(input[, options])
