Add support for Hovercards? #79

As of https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/30754 Mastodon now has hover cards - ProPlates don't show up in them yet, but is that even necessary?

If the pronouns are in the bio or field, then probably no. I think the case to think about would be pronouns from external sites - i.e. what would be in the ProPlate. And if displaying them for the hovercard brings a bonus which outweighs the lost information from the external pronouns page itself. Argument for displaying them (in the external site case) would be consistency of availability of the pronoun info, but I would display them similiiar but not 100%-identical to the profile fields. (and leaving them out if info is not external to not display the info twice)
