A tiny README might be helpful

Hello,

There's no really easy to find setup instructions for this package and by the way, the LemonLDAP::NG documentation refers to a non existing README.

It might be useful for potential users. ;)

A README possible content

What I've gathered, is I had to obviously install the package in the same environment as the Django app.

pip install django-lemonldap

And then add the required classes in AUTHENTICATIONS_BACKENDS and MIDDLEWARE configuration variables.

import lemonldap.auth
AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS = [
    'lemonldap.auth.backends.LemonldapUserBackend',
]
MIDDLEWARE = (
    ...
    'lemonldap.auth.middleware.LemonldapAuthenticationMiddleware',
)

From the midlleware.py variable, I found out that I had to at least expose a Auth-User header for my Django app in the LemonLDAP::NG manager, and that other builtin variables were available (Mail, Superuser, Staff... etc.).

Note that pipy has an outdated version missing commit e493331 so installing with "pip install" results in non working code.
