Martyn Inglis dbf70ec1eb First pass at implementing API authentication using new JWT tokens
- NOTE - this does not manage secrets. There is only one URL and there is no functionality implemented
- prior to rolling out we need to store secrets properly

Uses the JWT libraries in [https://github.com/alphagov/notifications-python-client](https://github.com/alphagov/notifications-python-client)

- Tokens are checked on every request and will be rejected if token is invalid as per the rules in the python clients.
