Christian Muehlhaeuser bbd2e15001 Support fetching READMEs from GitHub
When passing a valid GitHub URL instead of a filename to gold,
it will fetch either README.md or README (in that order) from
GitHub and displays the markdown content.

Example:

./gold -s dark.json https://github.com/muesli/beehive
