Create simple custom webview for Android to open /posts links #41

Links specified in the markdown of "posts" articles should ideally open an in-app webview. While this works very nicely on iOS with forceSafariVC set to true, on Android the default webview is not really nice. We tried to improve it by enabling JS and allowing HTTP links in #34, but there's no progress indicator for the page load and no way to copy link (to open in browser).

So until we implement a simple Webview for Android (reusable even in iOS, if decent enough), let's just force Android Markdown links to open in the default browser.
