Request Object should validate applicationId

[peterpanning]

Hey,

According to the Amazon guidelines for developing an Alexa skill, there should be some validation of Alexa requests within Lambda function codes.

The Request object seems like a good place to do that, since it's already doing some wrapping of Request JSONs anyways. I'm not sure how to go about raising an HTTP 400 Error without using some more robust framework, but I think this should at least raise an Assertion Error if the applicationIds don't line up

Thoughts?
