Very deep objects take a long time to stringify, maybe add a depth option ? #16

Description

@netei

I've been trying to log some objects that are very deep, but I'm actually not interested in the full object, just the parts that are not at a too big depth.

I know the current implementation relies on JSON.stringify, which has no depth option, so I'm not sure if it is possible to implement it from here.

Anyway, here's a code sample to reproduce :

  var rootFoo = [];
  var foo = rootFoo;
  for (var j = 0; j < 1000; j++) {
    foo[j] = [];
    for (var i = 0; i < 100; i++) {
      foo[j][i] = foo;
    }
    foo = foo[j]
  }

  process.stdout.write(require("json-stringify-safe")(rootFoo) + "\n");
