I noticed that the boto library has been deprecated in favor of boto3 and python-cloudfiles is a 404s. Given that we now have support for libcloud (which supports AWS, GCP, OpenStack and more), I propose to deprecate the boto and cloudfiles based drivers to reduce future maintenance cost. As such, this pull request updates the documentation to recommend the libcloud driver as the default driver.
This pull request also adds some documentation on how to run the demo app as a quick ad-hoc storage explorer.
