Add precompiled template (js target) support to ruby haml

This seems like something nice to have as the current ruby haml implementation only allows for an html target.

To be clear — I'm not going to be working on this; I'm just posting this as a possible enhancement that anyone is welcome to do.

Wait, what is supposed to happen here? Are we adding support for js to grunt-haml, or to grunt-ruby-haml?

[mehcode]

grunt-ruby-haml (in my opinion) is a superfluous project that could be merged into this project. I had this idea before we had ruby support here. Now we have ruby support here but only for server-side templates. We don't have support for target: 'js'.

[joneshf]

Gotcha, so add js support to grunt-haml.

Shouldn't this be added at the Haml level, and then bubble up into grunt-haml?

[mehcode]

@robwierzbowski I wouldn't think that the project would care to provide JST when its meant (as far as I know) for server-side templating. But if someone can work it in there then that would be better, I agree.

Edit: Not sure how the grunt task can act anywhere besides on the server. I might not be understanding, but if the goal is to include JST files that are rendered by node in a Haml template, wouldn't you have a two part process: first use a grunt plugin designed for your particular flavor of JST to render JST to HTML, then include that HTML with grunt-haml/Haml?

For our stack at @concordusapps we use grunt-haml to transform haml files to JST and rendered using chaplin on the client. Simple demo we showed off a while ago: https://github.com/concordusapps/chaplin-demo

Thanks, I'll take a look. Appreciate the grunt task, by the way.
