[Openid-specs-ab] AppAuth Fork

[William Denniss]

In hindsight I think more generic jargon for the demo makes a lot of sense
to avoid any confusion.

In response to this feedback, and similar off-list feedback, both the
AppAuth repos are now
<https://twitter.com/WilliamDenniss/status/841702119983931393> completely
generic, and will remain that way. All Examples work with all OIDC
providers.  The only place for IdP-specific info from here on is in the
README-*.md files, for which OIDC compliant, AppAuth supporting providers
are welcome to submit!

On that note, I'd like to welcome Gluu to submit READMEs to both
repositories for how to use AppAuth with Gluu!   Any bug fixes and new
features are of course welcome as PRs too.

Best,
William
