Allow arbitrary "document" types

Just a quick thought: Why restrict the basic re-ranking interface to just strings?
For example, one might want to re-rank images and there might be models that support that.
I believe, the two main model classes of this library, Result and RankedResults, can pretty easily be relaxed to support generic document types (i.e., by extending Generic[T] and swapping str for T).
