v8 - Building a proper API

[brunoamaral]

This won't hit as hard as Smith but it does pack a punch.
And and I have a hunch this release will rock.

The API is now hosted at https://api.gregory-ms.com/ and offers some options for authentication, new methods, and much more information about each piece of content. Articles, Trials, and Sources.

The search by keyword is somewhat new as it now only uses get requests and accepts regular expressions. The javascript that shows related articles on the site is now broken, but I'll get around to fix it sometime next week. Same as the documentation for developers, that has become more outdated than the yellow pages.

Life has been a bit demanding lately, so if you can, please take a look around and let me know if you find any issues.
