Hide side menu when hardware back button is pressed

Feature request

Can you make the ionic side menu close when the hardware back button is pressed? Most native Android app's do this when a side menu is open.

I posted on the forums about this awhile back.

Thanks for ionic!

Done! Landed in nightly, will be released tomorrow with beta.4.
