This function is provided as an extension of the number prototype, so that once you've got a pitch, you can easily find another pitch of the same pitch class, but within a different octave.
For example: shimi.pitch('C4').near(shimi.pitch('B5')) will return the same value as if you'd just used shimi.pitch('C6').
In the case where the target pitch is exactly halfway between 2 possible pitches, this function will return the one that is closest to the current pitch value. For example: shimi.pitch('C2').near(shimi.pitch('F#5')) returns the pitch value for C5 rather than C6.
