$.removeData could return the data

[klaus]

It would be handy if $.removeData would return the data that is being removed.

Instead of

var data = $.data(el, 'data');
$.removeData(el, 'data');

it seems more intuitive (and less to type) to have:

var data = $.removeData(el, 'data');

These are the necessary changes
