API Additions

This release introduces a number of API features that should prove helpful for developers implementing the Statistics API. For full details, check better_statistics.api.php.

• New hook: hook_better_statistics_prelog() to react before Better Statistics begins logging data.
• New function: better_statistics_request_is_loggable() to set/check whether the page request can/should be logged (especially useful with the above hook).
• New function: better_statistics_served_from_cache() to be used in concert with checking Drupal Bootstrap phase when implementing the Statistics API. This was introduced to help module developers deal with the bug fixed with this release.
