As requested in http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=332053.0

This allows the admin to set a minimum and/or maximum number of words to be present in a post before allowing it to be accepted, e.g. minimum of 20 words in the post.

* allows both individual minimum and maximum, and 'off' limits - 0 = no limit, up to 10000 on either limit (you can set a maximum of 10,000 words for example)
* discounts numbers entirely
* treats punctuation (except ') as word breaking, e.g. two-worded is treated as two words
* considers words as 3 characters or more
* configurable on a per board level

HTML and BBcode is not considered.
