/*
* Adds a new sorting option to dataTables called <code>date-dd-mmm-yyyy</code>. Also
* includes a type detection plug-in. Matches and sorts date strings in
* the format: <code>(dd/mmm/yyyy</code>. For example:
* <ul>
* <li>02-FEB-1978</li>
* <li>17-MAY-2013</li>
* <li>31-JAN-2014</li>
* </ul>
*
* @name Date dd-mmm-yyyy
* @anchor date-dd-mmm-yyyy
