Image metadata included for posts #53

This is arguably close to #41 but I think it should be called out separately.

For posts that contain images having the image URL's in an array in the YAML front-matter would be very helpful.

  1. This could power image metadata to include on social media shares or rich previews. Right now if you send a microblog URL in iMessage there is no image to find.
  2. This also could allow themes to do interesting things with the images.

Perhaps this should even include image width and height as well.

This is how micro.blog links show up in iMessage right now. Would be nice to have an image if there is one and more metadata.

Links still lack rich data in iMessage at least.

However, you can use James Griffin’s plug-in to help with this. Unsure the extent to which this solves all of the issues.
