Always have piazzabot reply in a thread #14

If someone starts a thread below a message with a piazza tag, PiazzaBot link won't be visible in the thread. We can improve this by having PiazzaBot always reply to the message containing the link. If the message PiazzaBot is responding to is not already part of a thread, the reply should also be sent to the channel. Otherwise, the response should stay in the thread.

We might be able to tighten this further: if someone sends a piazza tag in a threaded reply and also sends to channel, PiazzaBot can reply in the thread and also send to channel.
