This corresponds to a "project" entry in the new config2.toml file. (See
13c84cd9973458750305c72a919cf921d9b22b04).
Instead of decoding generic `interface{}`s as projects from the TOML,
make them a real type.
The reason why we're using `int`s where we used to use strings is that
the new TOML format will have users write IDs directly in the config
file, instead of having the program automatically search for those IDs
and use them as we had previously designed. Maybe we'll bring that
functionality back at some point, but for now it's too bothersome to
implement and I don't consider it worth the trouble.

Half get rid of a lot of code. I don't like and don't want to use our
old field types. Get rid of them and the code in 'http.go' that depends
on them.
Also get rid of the time entry submission code in 'main.go' as that's
going to be redone.

* Get rid of the 'yaml' import since we're now using 'toml' instead.
* Get rid of commented code that's no longer relevant.
* Get rid of test code that checked that the config loaded
correctly.

Construct a new config format, written in TOML. Read that format in
when starting the program. This new format has the benefit of using
project name aliases as keys. The goal will be to allow users to send
one of those aliases as a command line argument to the program,
and thus to have the program post a TimeTask entry for that project.
Here's an idea of what the new format looks like:
[auth]
username = "example"
password_cmd = ""
[projects.myprojectalias]
client = ...
project = ...
module = ...
task = ...
work_type = ...
time = 7
billable = true
[projects.project2]
client = ...
project = ...
module = ...
task = ...
work_type = ...
time = 7
billable = true
Eventually, we'll need to remove the `interface{}` from the
`Projects` map value and replace it with a real type, but this was just
to test that it was possible to get us a nice map from the TOML.

Use a GitHub path instead of my custom project path to allow us to
publish the project.

A function to generate a weekly time sheet.
Add a new `defaults` key to the config.yml file. Looks like this:
defaults:
client:
project:
module:
task:
work_type:
time:
billable:
This will be used to fill in default values when a timesheet is
generated.

We'll be needing to refer to these fields as named types, so create
types for them and reference them in the config object.

Expect a timesheet file as the last argument to the program. Parse the
contents into `TimeEntry` objects. `TimeEntry`ies will then be able to
be POSTed to Time Task to submit times.
The time entries input file is a YAML document in this format:
- client: A client
project: A project
module: A module
task: A task
work_type: type
date: 2017-03-06
time: 7
billable: true
description:
It contains an array where each element is a time entry.
Had a lot of trouble parsing the date into a `time.Time`. Finally
realised that my first and biggest problem was somehow I was importing
`yaml.v1` instead of `yaml.v2`, and thus my `UnmarshalYAML` function was
never getting called.
Wanted a way to get the time as a string and parse it myself into a
time. At first tried using an `UnmarshalText` function:
type Time time.Time
func (t *Time) UnmarshalText(text []byte) error {
parsed, err := time.Parse("2006-01-02", string(text))
if err == nil {
*t = Time(parsed)
}
return err
}
But in order to do that I had to make a type alias to `time.Time`. Doing
so was not ideal, because then I'd have to convert my `Time` into a
`time.Time` any time I wanted to use it for real.
Ended up going with a suggestion from here:
https://mlafeldt.github.io/blog/decoding-yaml-in-go/
Creating an auxiliary struct in `UnmarshalYAML` to unmarshal the date
into a string and then parse it myself as a date. I don't really like it
because it's a lot of ceremony just to parse one type myself, but can't
come up with a better solution right now so there you have it.

* Extract the config loading lines from `main` so we can give them a name
* Make `config` available globally

Set up a configuration object which gets read from a YAML config file.
Currently using an uncommitted test file that looks like this (with some
data filled in:
auth:
username:
password_cmd:
fields:
person_id:
clients:
- id:
name:
projects:
- id:
name:
modules:
- id:
name:
tasks:
- id:
name:
work_types:
- id:
name:
The program just outputs the config object so I can see whether it's
working. The data will then be used to associate ids for time
submission.
