Add feature: `emitState` about meteor-eventemitter

[arunoda]

I'm not familiar with cordova and frankly didn't get what you've said.
How about some code example?

We lack an emitter to simulate a state an example could be the cordova
ready event where we want to be notified when a state changes, if a state
is already set we will run the listener at registration.

Another use case is for the raix:push package where a push message can be
set before Meteor is even ready/after ready etc. So the message can be
interpreted as a state, eg. we want to get the state and updates.

:) fair enough

  var em = new EventEmitter();


  em.addListener('ready', function() {
    // I'm waiting on the ready state
  });

  // Emit a ready state - additional data is optional
  em.emitState('ready');

  em.addListener('ready', function() {
    // I'll just run since the ready state is already triggered
  });

Okay. got it.
Then I think, it's better we build it as a separate package.

I know, it can be useful for a lot of places. For example, when creating
ready callbacks and so on.

May be you can use this package behind the scene.

yep, good point - might be best to keep this package as clean as possible - maybe I'll add a eventState package instead, thanks!
