Stop recommending GIFV in all cases #10

According to Imgur staff:

we surface the original GIF if it's under 2M

This means in some cases, a GIFV link is delivering exactly the same content as the corresponding GIF link.

It pisses me off when I post a link to one of the GIFs in question, only to have a pointless recommendation by the bot.
