This PR improves LoopTips' User Experience when clicking a link to an external site.
Links to external websites will now open in a new window (or a new tab depending on the Web browser's configuration) whereas before it was opening in the same window.
The PR appends the attribute list suffix {: target="_blank" } to existing external links so that they open in a new window
Most non-tech-savvy users do not know how to open links in a new tab/window using ⌘ Click (Command-Click) on Mac or ⌃ Click (Control-Click) on Windows. The goal is to help them so that they do not lose track of where they have been in LoopTips as soon as they close the new window.
🙏🏻 Thank you @dnzxy for suggesting this improvement:
Example:
*Tidepool* has [announced](https://tidepool.org/loop/){: target="_blank" }
that they are embarking on a project to build and support
an FDA-regulated version of *Loop*, to be available in the iOS App Store,
intended to work with commercially available insulin pumps and CGMs.
