Make generic / move to cloudfoundry-community #20

Taking a quick look at this package, I'm thinking it could be renamed to cf-django-uaa, and references to cloud.gov could be replaced with cloud foundry. In which case it might also make sense to move it to https://github.com/cloudfoundry-community, where the cloud.gov team tries to keep generic tools. WDYT?

Oops, sorry for the late reply--I hadn't been emailed about your issue for some reason and just noticed it!

That's possible, though I wasn't sure how cloudfoundry-generic the code actually is... Part of the reason I made this was so it'd be dead simple to integrate with cloud.gov without fiddling too much with configuration parameters, so as long as making it cloudfoundry-generic doesn't complicate configuration, I'm OK with it. If possible it'd be nice to see if there's interest in the CF community for such a package existing first.

Another thought I'd had was making this even more generic, so that it's actually just an OpenID connect auth backend, since that's what CF uses, but the same concerns apply.
