Could you please modify not to change the version number, and provide details of the problem being solved and how it's solving it.

Current behavior

The current version of 'frogmouth' v0.9.0 if you pass a short URL like those generated on Twitter, 'frogmouth' opens the default browser with the final URL

Expected behavior

This PR adds the behavior that if a short URL is passed follows the redirect and continues with the validation that the "path" is a file with extension Markdown, resulting the Markdown content being rendered in the Viewer widget
