Now working on Rails 4
Avoid warning about `secret_token` in Rails 4

When `config.secret_token` is used, rails 4 puts the following warning.

```
DEPRECATION WARNING: You didn't set config.secret_key_base in
config/initializers/secret_token.rb file. This should be used instead of
the old deprecated config.secret_token in order to use the new
EncryptedCookieStore. To convert safely to the encrypted store (without
losing existing cookies and sessions)
```
Avoid warning about `whiny_nils` in Rails 4

Rails 4 says:

```
DEPRECATION WARNING: config.whiny_nils option is deprecated and no
longer works.
```
