Enable programmatic manipulation

[shprink]

We had a need to programmatically have access to internal controller functions.

Handling several instances of Gridster

I added a delegate handle attribute to name your gridster instance (not mandatory)

<div gridster="gridsterOptions" delegate-handle="myGridster">

Get Gridster instances (via GridsterDelegate factory)

With the GridsterDelegate factory you can within your controller get any gridster instance like this:

GridsterDelegate.getByHandle('myGridster')

If you havent specify any handle

GridsterDelegate.getByHandle()

Get GridsterItem instances

GridsterDelegate.getByHandle(delegate).getItemInstances()

Use cases

Change the size of all items programmatically

GridsterDelegate.getByHandle().getItemInstances().forEach(function(item){
item.setSizeY(5);
})

@danomatic let me know what you think. Then I can help fixing the tests.

+1,
I think it's a nice way to manage the items.
maybe we could try to fix the tests and merge it ?
