API client class v1.1.73

- minor spacing changes based on Scrutinizer feedback
- updated create_wlan() method/function to work with the new way of assigning a VLAN which now requires passing the _id value
of the VLAN, reported by @BeneReuthlinger
- merged #132, README update, contributed by @pauloboc
- merged #133, adds edit_client_name() method, contributed by @pauloboc
