Increase in spam in the past few weeks

See original GitHub issue

It seems as if there is a lot of new spam coming in from people using Twitter (IIUC) to sign up for djangosnippets. I would suggest to increase the bar for submission by

  1. adding recaptcha
  2. allowing signup only for users with verified email addresses

@carltongibson @felixxm @stephrdev Does anyone have some spare cycles to take a look at this?
