A button to directly join a channel

[geekgonecrazy]

I know this is more of a artsy request. But we need a button like gitter has that would let developers include a button on their README to join directly to their channel.

depends on #604

with the addition of roles, we can now have a role "guest-user" which can only navigate into channels and read its messages

[geekgonecrazy]

ah! Yes this is true! 👍

@sampaiodiego @geekgonecrazy we already have this button, but user must create an account to see the button and messages. I don't know if roles are related to this issue, it's more related to be able to configure channels as public readable.

@rodrigok we have a button that is stand alone?

Like:

The messages yes for sure depends on channels being able to be publicly readable

[rodrigok]

@geekgonecrazy we can use this
