qa removed lcsh authority because it duplicates LOC's subjects sub-authority

This ticket needs to be broken down into multiple tickets. UI vs backend.

make factory pattern/single point of entry for the term - pass URL and get back relevant label. This will also make it easier to test

      # make RemoteAuthority module . Authority.label_for_url(url) -  check for where url is (local, db, remote)
      # will allow us to make submodules for each type (ie: geoname)
      # local caching can be done at the remoteAuthority level.
      # this separates frontend from backend. someone can handle frontend. someone else can handle adding more sub authorities.
      # with the argument passed we need to figure out where authority is (ask remote, db cache or local)
      # Break tickets down
      # UI/Indexing (label show on page (solr), editing should show label(fedora) )
      # caching as a different ticket?
      # BACKEND How is this done in questioning authority (remote interaction). get authority module working to return a string once passed a url
      # Insullation layer (=> create wrapper around calling gem directly. can help to protect us from being codependent on the gem)
      # do we can the label to be saved in fedora? 

      auth_id = Authority.sanitize_controlled_field_uri(value) # assume user-provided URI references a valid authority
      # fetch and cache authority (job) => background job to go to LOC and pull them into local db. Authority.fetch_cache_term

We need to implement vocabulary search with #find. this will be captured in a separate ticket.
