Api Key Security Concern #12

Description

@chaimtevel

Hi,

With regards to the API key, the readme specifies the API key being supplied as follows new PrintNode.WebSocket({apiKey: 'insert apikey here'}). Is there a option to use a public key of some sort instead?

If this is the API key we can use to authenticate to the REST API then it can be used to operations that can incur costs such as creating print jobs. Anyone with this API key would also be able to retrieve information about computers, printers, or subscribe to webhooks and sending the data to whatever server is specified in the URL parameter.

I'm not quite comfortable with exposing this info in a javascript file ☹️

Thanks!

Chaim
