 * Partially applies a function to a particular "this object" and zero or
 * more arguments. The result is a new function with some arguments of the first
 * function pre-filled and the value of |this| "pre-specified".
 *
 * Remaining arguments specified at call-time are appended to the pre-
 * specified ones.
 *
 * Usage:
 * var barMethBound = BindToObject(myFunction, myObj, "arg1", "arg2");
 * barMethBound("arg3", "arg4");
 *
 * @param fn {string} Reference to the function to be bound
 *
 * @param self {object} Specifies the object which |this| should point to
 * when the function is run. If the value is null or undefined, it will default
 * to the global object.
 *
 * @returns {function} A partially-applied form of the speficied function.
