Use the Last.fm API to show current playing song on Spotify #87

Spotify currently doesn't have any endpoint for fetching the currenty playing track for a user. Though a workaround is to connect your Spotify account to Last.fm and use their API. See http://www.last.fm/api/show/user.getRecentTracks.

To link to the song, use the Spotify search API to search for the artist and the song name, and take the first hit.
