Improve drawing algorithm to handle situation when pool of people for specific item is empty

[prondzyn]

Current drawing algorithm skips people which already drawn specific item in the past meetings. Example: on first meeting John Doe drawn Emacs license. During each further (on the same and future meetings) Emacs license draw John Doe will be omitted. It is a correct behavior. But over time we can get a situation when all people which are present on current meeting already drown Emacs license. We do not have any solution for this currently and we need to handle such case.

Possible solution: when pool of people for given item is empty then add to the pool 5(or 10?) people present on current meeting which won the license the earliest and draw the license from the new pull. Solution can be discussed. We only have to remember that in most cases we cannot move the drawing item to the next meeting and we have to draw it on current meeting.

sounds reasonably
