<img> element to DataURL

# Usage
```javascrfpt
define(['toDataURL'], function (toDataURL) {
var element = document.getElementByTagName('img')[0];
var src = 'https://avatars0.githubusercontent.com/u/7076521?v=2&s=84';
/* you can get the dataUrl from an element (not a url) synchronously, */
console.log(toDataURL(element));
// > data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgo...
/* but that sync method may cause some issues, so you can also make it by an async way. */
toDataURL(element, {
callback: function (err, data) {
if (!err) console.log(data);
// > data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgo...
}
});
/* or get the dataUrl from a url asynchronously */
toDataURL(src, {
callback: function (err, data) {
if (!err) console.log(data);
// > data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgo...
}
});
/* and define the width and height */
toDataURL(src, {
width: 120,
height: 120,
callback: function (err, data) {
if (!err) console.log(data);
// > data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgo...
}
});
/* maybe you just want the base64 data */
toDataURL(src, {
purify: true,
callback: function (err, data) {
if (!err) console.log(data);
// > iVBORw0KGgo...
}
});
});
