 An example of a 'use' would be if the user launched the app. Bringing the app
 into the foreground (on devices that support it) would also be considered
 a 'use'. You tell Appirater about these events using the two methods:

 [Appirater appEnteredForeground:]

 A significant event can be anything you want to be in your app. In a
 telephone app, a significant event might be placing or receiving a call.
 In a game, it might be beating a level or a boss. This is just another
 layer of filtering that can be used to make sure that only the most
 loyal of your users are being prompted to rate you on the app store.
 If you leave this at a value of -1, then this won't be a criteria
 used for rating. To tell Appirater that the user has performed
 a significant event, call the method:
 [Appirater userDidSignificantEvent:];

 explicit "Rate this app" command somewhere.  In all other cases, don't worry
 about calling this -- instead, just call the other functions listed above,
 and let Appirater handle the bookkeeping of deciding when to ask the user
 whether to rate the app.
