Add new return_trailer option

Previously Jiffy would throw an error about trailing data if there is
any non-whitespace character encounter after the first term had been
decoded.

This patch adds a decoder option `return_trailer` that will instead
return a sub-binary starting at the first non-whitespace character. This
allows users to be able to decode multiple terms from a single iodata()
term.

Thanks to @vlm for the original patch.
