Added daring, ifdaring, "Advisor(s):" and bumped to v0.11.

I'm all for optionally breaking rules, so here's a new switch to
control this sort of thing.  I imagine there will be more daring
hacks in the future...

From: Evan Sultanik
Subject: Advisors in the Thesis Abstract
Date: Fri, 04 Jun 2010 14:49:12 -0400

how the advisors are listed in the abstract.  "Shouldn't there be the
word 'Advisor:' or something before the names to differentiate the
advisor(s) from the student?"

I assured him that this was done to conform to the official Drexel
thesis manual.

However...

I took a look at how I typeset my MS thesis (back in 2006) and I did
put the word "Advisor: " before listing my advisor.  Perhaps I broke
the rules then, and I am probably going to break them again for my
Ph.D.

Here's what I did: On line 195 of drexel-thesis.cls, right before
"\newcounter{advisor@loop}", I added the following:

    Advisor\ifnum\c@advisors>1s\fi: %

That seemed to do the trick.  I am not sure how you feel about
breaking such rules, but I would highly recommend merging it into the
master :-)
