Add Localbitcoins Market Data API #1

See https://localbitcoins.com/api-docs/#toc5 for API format and details.

On further investigation, localbitcoins doesn't have an equivalent to ticker data. Instead it features online ads. Not sure if it makes sense to include this into cryptick.

After reading about 40% of the localbitcoins data, I contend that it does not make sense to include localbitcoins in cryptic at this time because the API is so different from that of the other exchanges currently being manipulated that it probably warrants its own toolkit.

I tend to agree. I've posted the start of a separate localbitcoins lib, so I'll keep that functionality there.
