Adding Simple URL-based feature flags (#117)

* Fixes #66: As a developer, I want to limit the audience
that sees new features, so that we can control
the message and positioning of our tool.
Implements simple feature flagging via URL parameters.
Provide "?flags=x,y,z" to enable flags x, y, and z.
* Fixing type to use Location instead of URL
* Updating README with info on how to use feature flags
