OmniAuth strategy to accept JWT-based single sign-on

JSON Web Token (JWT) is a simple way to send verified information between two parties online. This can be useful as a mechanism for providing Single Sign-On (SSO) to an application by allowing an authentication server to send a validated claim and log the user in. This is how Zendesk does SSO, for example. OmniAuth::JWT provides a clean, simple wrapper on top of JWT so that you can easily implement this kind of SSO either between your own applications or allow third parties to delegate authentication.
