Subject: [PATCH] update signs on CursorHold or CursorHoldI

I added 2 new options that are disabled by default. Sign updating can
now be triggered after 'updatetime' miliseconds without keypresses in
either normal or insert mode:

For enabling:

let g:signify_cursorhold_normal = 1
let g:signify_cursorhold_insert = 1
