[BUG-41644] Add a Tumblr button to snapshot sharing #13136

How would you like the feature to work?

The Snapshot window has buttons for posting to Facebook, Twitter, and Flickr.

Second Life users are very active on Tumblr and may appreciate a button too: https://www.tumblr.com/tagged/second-life

Tumblr has a posting API that's very similar to the Twitter API: https://www.tumblr.com/docs/en/api/v2

Have a look and see if it might be simple to copy-and-paste the Twitter implementation and add another active social network.

Why is this feature important to you? How would it benefit the community?

More people seeing what's happening in Second Life is a happy thing. Discovery, engagement, and pie.

Unfortunately the API requires the linking of an account to share, they have a button but it's so secretively hidden in the website these days https://www.tumblr.com/buttons Note, the docs are only available on wayback archive because they messed up migration and forgot to copy that, so it redirects to a weird unrelated page, heres the docs for it https://web.archive.org/web/20160324162919/https://www.tumblr.com/docs/en/share_button
