This commit adds name matching for things like "Earnest H" and "Earnest H." to match a name like "Earnest Hemingway." If a period follows the last name initial, `friends` attempts to guess whether the period should be kept or removed based on whether it appears to be in the middle or the end of a sentence (this is determined via capitalization). Resolves #87.
