Add instructions for anonymous auth #19

Hey, thanks so much for the great talk and sample repo! I just tried to run it this evening, and ran into a small problem. When the app tries to execute this line:

https://github.com/efortuna/memechat/blob/master/lib/main.dart#L52

You'll actually run into a PlatformException that says something scary like "OPERATION NOT ALLOWED." I realized that line requires anonymous login, but hadn't looked at how my auth was configured in Firebase. Once I enabled anonymous auth, the problem went away. Therefore, thought I'd write up some quite instructions to help others!
