Title: Add support for searching whole words

VIM's * command searches for the whole word -- it wraps current word with word
boundaries: \< and \>. g*, on the other hand, does not care about word
boundaries.

This patch adds functionality to configure multiple cursors behaviour to be
consistent with VIM's * and g*. To do that, use newly introduced option:

let g:multi_cursor_start_key='g'
let g:multi_cursor_start_word_key=''

Note that in current implementation "start word" command works in both Normal
and Visual modes.

Fixes #104.
