GitHub username, repository-name, branch-name instead of URLs #11

Instead of having to provide the zip/api/raw URLs, it could be easier for most uses to just have the 'username', 'repository-name', and 'branch-name' be provided instead, and build those URLs within the class.

Definitely something I've thought of, will explore this!

@sc0ttkclark I submitted a pull request to @jkudish today that takes a stab at this. It's a pretty big changeset, but it enables github updates for all plugins with a github.com repository address set as the Plugin URI.

It gets version numbers and zip URLs from repo tags, so the only required configuration is the Plugin URI.

See https://github.com/jkudish/WordPress-GitHub-Plugin-Updater/pull/16

I'd appreciate each of your input on it!

I like pdclark's implementation and idea better. I am closing this ticket as his is more advanced and covers even better.
