new LazyLoad(selector, rooMargin)
selector - Required. A DOMString containing one or more selectors to match against.
rootMargin - Optional. Margin around the root (viewport). Can have values similar to the CSS margin property, e.g. "10px 20px 30px 40px". The values can be percentages. Defaults to 200px. With respect to lazy loading the image, how much margin between the element and the viewport before the image load is performed.
