Option to not store credentials in file 

Summary:**Motivation:** I don't like storing credentials in config files and a safer solution is to store them in the Keychain Access app.

Therefore I added a link that describes how one may go about to store the passwords in the Keychain Access app in OSX instead.

Found a [stackoverflow post](http://stackoverflow.com/a/24480579/1836121) but it wasn't very detailed so I decided to write it up myself. I understand if you have some policy against external links to blogs and I guess we could link to the stackoverflow explanation then instead.

These are going to be global gradle variables, which we can later use in our gradle config to sign our app.
_Note: Once you publish the app on the Play Store, you will need to republish your app under a different package name (losing all downloads and ratings) if you want to change the signing key at any point. So backup your keystore and don't forget the passwords._

_Note about security: If you are not keen on storing your passwords in plaintext and you are running OSX, you can also [store your credentials in the Keychain Access app](https://pilloxa.gitlab.io/posts/safer-passwords-in-gradle/). Then you can skip the two last rows in `~/.gradle/gradle.properties`._
