oEmbed support without needing to use the (paid) Embed.ly service. #299

Right now we use Embedly for embedding objects in the channel feed. It seems like overkill and is a bit expensive (they now charge for embeds into SSL pages).

It would be SUPER AWESOME to have this problem solved for some of the major providers and it looks like there are now competing solutions out there (when we started there was just oEmbed)

This looks very interesting and could be part of a solution: https://github.com/itteco/iframely
