Soda2Consumer should not require username and password, specify token should be enough

[bowenli86]

Why Soda2Consumer require username and password? Shouldn't providing token is enough? If I interact with the server via http, token is the only thing I need

You can use the constructor that just takes a base URL:

soda-java/src/main/java/com/socrata/api/Soda2Consumer.java

Line 28 in 270269d

public static final Soda2Consumer newConsumer(final String url)

Would that work for you instead?

[bowenli86]

Not really. According to section 'Throttling and Application Tokens' in https://dev.socrata.com/consumers/getting-started.html, if developers don't specify a token, there'll be throttling of app's requests.

Are you ok if I submit a PR to add another constructor, which only requires url and token, to Soda2Consumer?

@bowenli86 Sorry for not following up sooner, but of course a pull request would be welcome.

FYI, within the next day or two I'll be merging #27, which should dramatically clean up running the tests and such, and will introduced TravisCI testing to our workflow as well. Long overdue.
