destroy doesn't remove the element causing memory leak

[lostincomputer]

Memory is not freed when I call the destroy function

Root cause is this line:
$livestamps = $livestamps.not($el);

basically, with .not(), the element isn't removed from the array. $livestamps still holds a reference to the element.

Code to reproduce the problem:
$('#birth').livestamp(new Date('June 18, 1987'));
$('#birth').livestamp('destroy');
$('#birth').livestamp(new Date('June 18, 1987'));
$('#birth').livestamp('destroy');
$('#birth').livestamp(new Date('June 18, 1987'));
$('#birth').livestamp('destroy');

You will notice that value of $livestamps.selector becomes longer and longer
.not().not().not([object Object])
.not().not().not([object Object]).not().not([object Object])
.not().not().not([object Object]).not().not([object Object]).not().not([object Object])

@mattbradley thoughts on this?

Very nice find. This seems to be another quirk with using jQuery's methods to manage the list of livestamps (similar to #16). Maybe just adding and removing the livestamps from an array would be better. I'll look into this for v2.0.
