JavaScript to CoffeeScript compiler

notes: """
  Named function declarations in JavaScript can appear at any point of the
  scope, and they will be available anywhere in the scope. CoffeeScript doesn't
  allow named function declarations, however.

  To get around this, js2coffee takes function declarations and puts the on top
  of the scope.

  This is an improvement over js2coffee 0.x that only looks in the same level
  of the function body, not recursing into deeper blocks.
