Source Code for Language Guesser

I have made the source code for the Languid language guesser available in a module called, astonishingly, Language::Guess. Enjoy.

Documentation is forthcoming.

Thanks to everyone who tried out the language guesser, and thereby helped me debug it. I have added multiple language training sets, taught it to recognize some forms of gibberish as gibberish (rather than Cebuano), and fixed a bunch of Unicode handling errors, all thanks to your noodling.
