Update library to work with the latest LinkedIN API

[GoogleCodeExporter]

For once, it needs to support the new scope authentication parameter:

An Joomla Plugin I am using, JLinked relies on this LinkedIn API wrapper.  
The change in authentication requires a "scope" variable to return some fields 
now outside what LinkedIn considers basic profile fields.

The documentation is found here
https://developer.linkedin.com/documents/authentication#granting

in linkedin_3.2.0.class.php I addressed this by replacing 
$response = $this->fetch(self::_METHOD_TOKENS, self::_URL_REQUEST, NULL, 
$parameters);

with this

$response = $this->fetch(self::_METHOD_TOKENS, self::_URL_REQUEST . 
'?scope=r_basicprofile+r_emailaddress', NULL, $parameters);

Then in demo.php you have to request the email address.

$response = 
$OBJ_linkedin->profile('~:(id,first-name,last-name,picture-url,email-address)');

I made a small patch that fixes this in the call your making to request 
authorisation.

Usage: 
$tokenResponse = $linkedin->retrieveTokenRequest('r_fullprofile'); // for the 
full profile
or
$tokenResponse = $linkedin->retrieveTokenRequest(); // for the default.

File is attached.
