This can be used to verify Google JWT tokens. Google's public keys are automatically fetched
and cached according to the returned Cache-Control headers. Most requests to verify a token
through this library will not wait for an HTTP request

## Quick Start
```rust
//If you don't have a client id, get one from here: https://console.developers.google.com/
let client_id = "37772117408-qjqo9hca513pdcunumt7gk08ii6te8is.apps.googleusercontent.com";
let token = "...";// Obtain a signed token from Google
let client = Client::new(&client_id);
let id_token = client.verify_id_token(&token)?;
//use the token to obtain information about the verified user
let user_id = id_token.get_claims().get_subject();
let email = id_token.get_payload().get_email();
let name = id_token.get_payload().get_name();
```
