* Category scale can now read from the xLabels and yLabels properties.
* Update docs with section regarding the data object.
* Add sample file with non numeric Y and fix animations
Samples need to be packaged with built libraries (which one have been removed from the repository), so create a new `gulp package` task to generate a ZIP archive with dist files, samples and the license file. This archive is generated in the ./dist/ folder and will be deployed by Travis along the GH release. Note that the ./dist/ folder is not preserved but merged in the archive root. Also change samples requiring moment.js to load this lib from the CDN instead of the ./node_module folder.
Usage: If a label is an `array` as opposed to a `string` i.e. `[["June","2015"], "July"]` then each element is treated as a seperate line. The appropriate calculations are made to determine the correct height and width, and rotation is still supported.

* Horizontal bar chart type

* Sample file for horizontal bar chart
* Missing semicolon
* Fix for borderSkipped index
This will work with both relative and absolute position for the chart and will apply the tooltips appropriately. I have tested in a normal context and then also using the chart in the second column of two column table i.e. in a different position on the screen. Without this, the default tooltips will appear at the same position no matter where the chart is placed. They will appear misplaced. The fix I have provided allows the tooltips to appear smoothly with the chart, no matter where it is placed on the web page.
- set title
- set same size canvas as other samples
- fix adding data after all data has been removed
- remove user select from canvas
