Retrieve audit events via API

Zendesk issue: https://gitlab.zendesk.com/agent/tickets/13199

Add an API endpoint for retrieving audit events.

The audit logs should be API accessible so that it can be centralized into an organization wide SIEM logging system like Splunk.

cc/ @DouweM @brodock I don't think this would be too much work would it?

@dblessing Are these all the audit event sources http://doc.gitlab.com/ee/administration/audit_events.html ?

Building an API to get them is not hard, may take some time to get the right filters / finders for the data.

@brodock Yes, exactly.
