Implement login system on simple repository

Done when:

• https://spring.io/guides/tutorials/spring-boot-oauth2/#_social_login_simple is followed and a user can sign in with a google account.

Can't figure out the application.yml configuration.

• Does .yml and .properties have the same purpose?
• Where does the .yml go? The tutorial implies it already exists
• If .properties has the same purpose, why doesn't it work? Where does .properties tie into everything?

I got this working, I think the problem might be that they were missing the top level directive on the .yml file, it needs to start with spring: but in their example it starts with security:. However, if you check their github URL from the top, you can just check out their code, it works, and I found the difference by comparing.

I made [my own version and committed it to github] (https://github.com/tobydragon/SpringSocialLoginTest), you can clone this and work from it if you want. Just let me know and I'll add you as a collaborator so you can push.

The only complication is that you shouldn't push your ids and secrets in the application.yml, so you should revert make sure that one file is changed back to generic info before pushing. We can talk more about a workflow for that file when we meet.
