    Allow forcing GET on VIEW commands (even with keys)

    This issue rose when working against Cloudant. Their pricing is 5 times cheaper for GET requests than POST requests. I had a lot of requests for small sets of keys, nothing that couldn't go into a query string, and I had made this change in order to keep my bills down.
    
    The actual change was rather small - just adding an optional parameter to the request -
    ```javascript
      let exampleQuery = { 
                reduce : true, 
                group : true, 
                keys : [ [a,b], [c,d] ], 
                forceGet: true // this is the parameter I added
            }; 
    ```
    Do you think this is something that should go into the main branch ?
    Thanks
