Standardize topics

Aidan requested to merge ad-standardize-topics into master
  • Write custom linkifier, remove "linkify" dependency"
  • Topics are now just strings. Backslash prefixes are used within Posts to reference topics and make them links, like /futo becomes a purple link that goes to /t/futo. With the custom linkifier this system is now really easy to change
  • Topics in URLs are no longer URI escaped, so you can take your current website's URL box and add polycentric.io/t/{url} and it'll auto go to the topic. Modified custom router to accommodate this and auto-pick up query strings and tags in such topic URLs
  • URLS now have to start with http://, https://, or ftp:// to be parsed as such, which is the standard way they're copied from browsers on all platforms today.
