Use CAP Author Name and URL in oEmbed REST API endpoint #24

WordPress provides oEmbed data about posts through the /wp-json/oembed/1.0/embed/ API endpoint. https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/classes/wp_oembed_controller/

This data is used when previewing posts in certain clients. One of the clients that uses oEmbed is Discord.

This function sets up the oEmbed data, and eventually provides the filter oembed_response_data to modify it. https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/get_oembed_response_data/

We should use CoAuthors Plus data here so that the correct author name and URL are used. Currently the producer / editor is being displayed instead.

One caveat, I didn't immediately find a way to support multiple authors, so we may need to just use the first.
