Setting to adjust for wage inflation

[Gregable]

As per the discussion here, I feel that "today's dollars" is the best default for the tool to show to users, but on more than one occasion folks have requested that there at least be an option to adjust all of the numbers using the Trustees Report's estimate of wage inflation.

This would be a reasonable enhancement as long as the setting required user action and had a small warning above it about how the numbers are not comparable to today's prices and wages.

#19 addresses entering different estimates for future years incomes beyond the simple slider currently present. The main thing holding this back is coming up with an intuitive interface that doesn't burden lightweight visitors. If you have suggestions, let me know.

I think a slider with % year over year increase in wage each year, with the default set to zero is simple.
