Clear-GitHubAuthentication

Clears out any GitHub API token from memory, as well as from local file storage.

By default, this will clear out the cache in memory, as well as in the local configuration file. If this switch is specified, authentication will be cleared out in this session only -- the local configuration file cache will remain (and thus still be available in a new PowerShell session).
