Passing variables through handlebars partial

Handlebars partials take a second parameter which becomes the context for the partial:

{{> person this}}

In versions v2.0.0 alpha and later, you can also pass a hash of named parameters:

{{> person headline="Headline"}}

You can see the tests for these scenarios: https://github.com/wycats/handlebars.js/blob/ce74c36118ffed1779889d97e6a2a1028ae61510/spec/qunit_spec.js#L456-L462
