Sitemap support as a feed source #42

If a site doesn't have an RSS feed, or their RSS feed has issues and is incomplete, 1Feed should be able to use a sitemap instead. The four bits of information that are extracted from an RSS feed currently are:

Sitemaps always have the URLs, often have dates, sometimes have images (the image:image tag), but don't usually have titles in the sitemap as far as I can tell. This means I'd need to request each URL in the sitemap to get the title, which could be time consuming and I might come across rate limits if I tried to request them all at once. While not ideal, the URL could be used as a fallback for the title.

Example of a sitemap I'd want to add: https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1-sitemap.xml
