This adds a
method='dense'option torankwhich does the same thing as the one inscipy.stats.rankdata: the first ranked group gets 1, the second 2, etc. Basically it ports the approach used inscipy.stats._rankdata_fusedto the pandas rankdata implementation.It also adds a few tests that the various methods do what they're supposed to, which I couldn't find a test for before.
