Support for scoped packages

[glenjamin]

The public registry now supports scopes: http://blog.npmjs.org/post/116936804365/solving-npms-hard-problem-naming-packages

There's also some neat stuff in the client to support pointing scopes at different registries: https://docs.npmjs.com/misc/scope

Here's a suggested featurelist in rough order of importance:

• proxing & caching of scoped packages
• publishing scoped packages locally
• configurable whitelist for scopes which can be published to (eg. only local publish to @companyname)

I'm going to take a stab at the first two for now.

What exactly do you mean by whitelisting scopes? Publishing to local, or even passing it through to the parent registry?

I was thinking that local would only accept publishes for the named scopes.

Could proxy other publishes, or just reject.
