REST: Enable token auth support
Token authentication is generally viewed as a more secure option for API
authentication than storing a username and password.
Django REST Framework gives us a TokenAuthentication class and an authtoken
app that we can use to generate random tokens and authenticate to API
endpoints. Enable this support and add some tests to validate correct
behavior.
