Base 36 constructor

[infusion]

Well, Bitset.js has two static functions BitSet.fromHexString and BitSet.fromBinaryString. Currently there is no option for an arbitrary base, but I think it would be a nice addition. Maybe something like BitSet.fromString(str, base)`, what do you think?

Constructor, static function, I am easy either way.. ❤️

I was just looking through your parse(P, val) to see if it was possible.. I got a little confused by the len = 8 for hexidecimal part, so I was unsure what would be needed for passing in 36 or even arbitrary lengths..

The len is just max block length, that is cut out at each time. For base 2 it's 32, for 16 it's 8, for a general base b it would be Math.log(2**32) / Math.log(b). However, this only makes sense for 2^k-bases with the current implementation. And I think implementing a static function is much cleaner, instead of coming up with an arbitrary prefix, such as 36:XYZ or something.
