Use Apple API to get info about an app #3

Description

@gcerquant

Currently, the version number is parsed from iTunes public web page.
Apple provides an API that returns everything in JSON format.
Let's use this API.

Search example by id:
http://ax.itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStoreServices.woa/wa/wsLookup?id=359435914

Search example by bundleId:
http://ax.itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStoreServices.woa/wa/wsLookup?bundleId=com.macmation.tictacboo

This allows us to simplify the setup process, as we don't need to ask the developer the AppleId: we can get it in the JSON return, under the key trackId.
