// Depends on scripts:
//          Knockout
//
//  Notes:
//          Special thanks to Steve Sanderson and Ryan Niemeyer for
//          their influence and help.
//
//  Usage:
//          To Setup Tracking, add this tracker property to your viewModel
//              ===> viewModel.dirtyFlag = new ko.DirtyFlag(viewModel.model);
//
//          Hook these into your view ...
//              Did It Change?
//              ===> viewModel.dirtyFlag().isDirty();
//
//          Hook this into your view model functions (ex: load, save) ...
//              Resync Changes
//              ===> viewModel.dirtyFlag().reset();
//
//          Optionally, you can pass your own hashFunction for state tracking.
