Documentation for rewrite_polyfills in the API is missing

See original GitHub issue

I noticed the output from the command-line closure compiler included polyfills (recognizable by inclusion of $jscomp object at the beginning of the code), but the API service and the demo compiler do not include polyfills by default. I stumbled around the internet for a while before I finally found an answer on stack overflow that pointed me to the rewrite_polyfills parameter. It would be great if rewrite_polyfills could be documented at https://developers.google.com/closure/compiler/docs/api-ref and the default noted.

We should also rename the option, as it doesn’t rewrite polyfills it simply includes them.

https://developers.google.com/closure/compiler/docs/api-ref now includes rewrite_polyfills so marking as fixed.
