Add an estimated reading time to a fic description.

This is a simple script that takes the wordcount of a fic and calculates a readtime in minutes, to be displayed in the fic description. It also adds a dropdown to the AO3 header to toggle the feature on and off. Editing the script allows you to set your own reading pace in words per minute (the default is 250), and to adjust or turn off the readtime colour-coding. The code is based loosely on Min's "AO3: Kudos/hits ratio" script.
