Set repos up as GitHub Template repos #78

GitHub recently added a new repository setting to mark a repo as a "template repository".

It's quite easy to set up (see docs) and basically just adds a little badge to the repo which allows people to copy the repo to their account (NB: not fork it, there's no link here).

This will obviously skip some of the bionitio functionality such as renaming the project within the code, however it could offer a second alternative route for users.
