Add FindPeople operation

Add FindPeople operation.

Example implementation: OfficeDev/ews-managed-api@4545916

I also need FindPeople and GetPersona for a project I'm working on. We've been able to get by with the functionality that ews-javascript-api provides so far, but now we need to support lync 2013 and the contact/group management through the skype javascript SDK is severely lacking there. What are the chances these two operations could be added within the next 2 months? I need to figure out if we can continue using this library or if we have to start budgeting to implement our own against the EWS soap API.

I would also realy like to have this function in ews-javascript-api.

This is an example soap request.
