Create a script to convert from LESS to stylus

[mikeyp]

Current v1.4.0 branch was a manual conversion and that is making it impossible to stay up to date with upstream. Need to have some method of automating this, to make it easier to update although I doubt a 100% automated solution will be possible (some manual tweaks will still be needed).

There are some ideas discussed at https://github.com/LearnBoost/stylus/issues/118 to hook into the tree parsed by less (see https://github.com/cloudhead/less.js/blob/master/lib/less/tree/ruleset.js , which converts the tree to css)

@mikeyp hey, I've built such a script — https://gist.github.com/6108804 — and it succeeded converting bootstrap 3.x, it requires some mixin/variables reordering (twbs#8726) but if it is accepted less-to-stylus conversion will be fully automatic.

Would you be interested in taking over this project? I'd prefer to just transfer the NPM project to you, and you can point it at your own repo if you'd like?
