HDFStore.put() method accepts dropna boolean parameter as it is passed
directly to the internal _write_to_group() method, but it was not
explicitly documented (as it is for append).
Just added 2 lines to the put() method docstring to mention it explicitly.

actually...can you copy the text from HDFStore.append method (the dropna option), as this is also settable by an option (and its the same option)

I wondered about that, since the append() method looks to have logic specifically looking at that option, but the put() method does not (- I've not actually tested it nor dug into the methods it calls to see if it was picked up there)
