func_documentation_string: Sets the status {@link #text} and/or {@link #iconCls}. Also supports automatically clearing the
  status that was set after a specified interval.
  
  Example usage:
  
  // Simple call to update the text
  statusBar.setStatus('New status');
  
  // Set the status and icon, auto-clearing with default options:
  statusBar.setStatus({
  text: 'New status',
  iconCls: 'x-status-custom',
  clear: true
  });
  
  // Auto-clear with custom options:
  statusBar.setStatus({
  text: 'New status',
  iconCls: 'x-status-custom',
  clear: {
  wait: 8000,
  anim: false,
  useDefaults: false
  }
  });
  
  @param {Object/String} config A config object specifying what status to set, or a string assumed
  to be the status text (and all other options are defaulted as explained below). A config
  object containing any or all of the following properties can be passed:
  
  @param {String} config.text The status text to display.  If not specified, any current
  status text will remain unchanged.
  
  @param {String} config.iconCls The CSS class used to customize the status icon (see
  {@link #iconCls} for details). If not specified, any current iconCls will remain unchanged.
  
  @param {Boolean/Number/Object} config.clear Allows you to set an internal callback that will
  automatically clear the status text and iconCls after a specified amount of time has passed. If clear is not
  specified, the new status will not be auto-cleared and will stay until updated again or cleared using
  {@link #clearStatus}. If `true` is passed, the status will be cleared using {@link #autoClear},
  {@link #defaultText} and {@link #defaultIconCls} via a fade out animation. If a numeric value is passed,
  it will be used as the callback interval (in milliseconds), overriding the {@link #autoClear} value.
  All other options will be defaulted as with the boolean option.  To customize any other options,
  you can pass an object in the format:
  
  @param {Number} config.clear.wait The number of milliseconds to wait before clearing
  (defaults to {@link #autoClear}).
  @param {Boolean} config.clear.anim False to clear the status immediately once the callback
  executes (defaults to true which fades the status out).
  @param {Boolean} config.clear.useDefaults False to completely clear the status text and iconCls
  (defaults to true which uses {@link #defaultText} and {@link #defaultIconCls}).
  
  @return {Ext.ux.statusbar.StatusBar} this
