Add missing parameters to `verify_credentials`

As described in the Twitter API docs, the `verify_credentials`
method accepts the optional `include_entities` and `skip_status`
parameters.

    https://dev.twitter.com/docs/api/1/get/account/verify_credentials

I've modified `tweepy.API.verify_credentials` for allowing these
parameters and expanded `tests.testverifycredentials` to test the
new functionality
