Added a schema validator. (#13)
* Added a schema validator.

This allows you to check if the given beau config is valid. Will be used
to improve the CLI and remove schema validation-type errors from the
actual code.

* Added a validate command to the CLI.

This command is a way to test the config file. Eventually it'll probably
be removed and the schema validation will run on every other command. I
have to determine how useful this is and how performance might be
affected.

		username: seich
		password: hello01

GET /profile
	ALIAS: profile

That would execute the profile request along with it´s dependencies. In this case, the session request would be made as well since we are using it´s response value as part of our current request.
