Update Readme; multiple file() needs custom key

- Update the Readme with notes that when using multiple config files,

  properly.

Fixes #97, Fixes #109, Fixes #110

### File
Based on the Memory store, but provides additional methods `.save()` and `.load()` which allow you to read your configuration to and from file. As with the Memory store, all method calls are synchronous with the exception of `.save()` and `.load()` which take callback functions. It is important to note that setting keys in the File engine will not be persisted to disk until a call to `.save()` is made.
