Implement Gist API

[SimonCropp]

There's a few here, so let's break it down and track the progress:

http://developer.github.com/v3/gists/

• List gists
• Get a single gist
• Create a gist - covered in Create gists #239
• Edit a gist
• Star a gist
• Unstar a gist
• Check if a gist is starred
• Fork a gist
• Delete a gist

I've start implement the gist API. Shall I also implement the comments API as a subclient of Gist or I have to open a new issue?

@xabikos we're following the layout of the documentation site to be consistent with how users would explore it

In this case Comments are under Gists, so I'd expect Comments to be a subclient of Gist:

var comments = client.Gist.Comments.GetAll("id");

@xabikos I've opened up #247 to track the Gists Comments API, which is somewhat different to the Gists API.

Feel free to leave a comment there if you've got any other questions.

@shiftkey thanks for the reply. I'll continue implementing the gists API and maybe afterwards implement the comments API as well. Regarding the gists shall I make a pull request for every one of above check boxes or only when all of them are finished?

[shiftkey]

Keep in mind that #239 is underway for creating gists

Thanks @shiftkey for remind it to me 👍

Doing it incrementally makes for easier code reviews on my end, but up to you. The checkboxes are just there to ensure that duplication of work isn't happening

I made a pull request for some of the methods related to gists. I created a topic branch (implement-gist-api) when I for the repository and worked on this branch. I made the pull request and didn't merge my topic branch to the master first. Is this correct? This is my first attempt for a pull request.

Except the above comment I have a question regarding the check if a gist is stared method. We have to make a get request to /gists/:id/star url and based on the response code (204, 404) return true or false. I couldn't find an easy solution to access the response code through API connection. Any suggestions on how to implement this? Shall I add an extra method to API connection to access the request response?
