Sometimes the linguist-js reports languages that have very few bytes. Could it be possible to add a new option to filter by minimum number of bytes for example:

linguist-js --minBytes 100

Could maybe do a bit more than that and allow something like linguist-js --minSize 5b / 7kb / 2%, say?

Add minSize option which adds to other result
fef9713 
An implementation of a `minSize` option (proposed in #32).

This allows filtering the output to only show languages with a resulting size greater than what the user inputs.

This is done by moving the results of these too-small languages to an `other` key and deleting the original results.

This may be too ad-hoc - for instance, maybe this should be a CLI-only option and the actual data isn't changed? Is the `other` key needed, or not?

For this reason this feature is not being committed straight to main and will sit as a pull request for proposal.

I've made a possible implementation of this feature - however I'm not 100% on the method I've chosen so feedback over at #35 would be welcome.
