Title: Adding a salt (attempt 2)

Adding a salt (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salt_(cryptography)) will greatly reduce man-in-the-middle attacks via dictionary attacks.

To use this, copy config.sample.lua to config.lua, and add the salt.

[Good samples could be found here.](https://www.random.org/passwords/?num=5&len=24&format=html&rnd=new)

I've added config.lua to the .gitignore so that people don't accidentally commit the salt.
