adding save-prefix configuration option
- npm install --save|--save-dev takes npm.config['save-prefix'] into
account when prefixing the version in the package.json
- by default the version is prefixed with '^'
- added tests for this feature
- added documentation for this feature including one example
- tests are passing without npmconf changes, but this commit goes alongside [e045042] in npmconf repo
