Feature request: scroll past the end

[CarbonaraJack]

Hello, I am currently in the process of learning VIM and your awesome plugin helps me a lot. Before installing smoothie I would always feel lost when scrolling though text and I am very grateful for that.

Would it be possible to implement scrolling past the end of files? In another issue you mention that smoothie only works with commands that move the window over the buffer but not by moving the cursor. Does this apply to zz, zt and zb as well?

Hi, and thanks for the kind words :)

Ah, yes. I see that original ^F can scroll past the EOL, eventually leaving only one last line visible on screen. Since the goal of this project is 100% compatibility with native commands, I'd say this is certainly a valid request.

zz and friends are scrolling commands indeed, and should be quite easy to implement. I'd be glad to review a PR adding them ;)

@CarbonaraJack I have tried to implement this feature in commit 2bdd74f in PR #21
Please test for any bugs in the implementation. Thank you.

Marking this issue as resolved. Progress on zz and friends will be tracked in #26.
