Linked Data Signature support added to JSON-LD Playground

Hi all,

Linked Data Signature support has been added to the JSON-LD Playground:

http://json-ld.org/playground/

Note the newly added "Signed" tab.

To use it:

1. Pick an example (like "Person").
2. Click on the "Signed" Tab.
3. You should see the signed data (including signature) in the tabbed
   pane.

At the moment, the jsonld-signatures library just supports PEM-encoded
private keys and signs using RSA-SHA256.

We plan to add other signature/hashing algorithms in time (e.g.
Bitcoin's secp256k1, ECDSA's secp256r1, and/or Ed25519), but doing so
requires Dave Longley (or someone else that knows a lot about
implementing cryptographic signature libraries) to extend Forge:
