### Timeline
- Implemented option `minHeight`, similar to option `maxHeight`.
+- Added function `repaint()` to force a repaint of the Timeline.
- Some tweaks in snapping dragged items to nice dates.
- Made the instance of moment.js packaged with vis.js accessibly via `vis.moment`.
- Fixed a bug in replacing the DataSet of groups via `Timeline.setGroups(groups)`.
