What's Changed

This change adds support for scraping:

• json+ld schema.org metadata
• DCMI metadata
• the unofficial metadata used by some journals

This hugely improves scraping accuracy on most modern news articles, worldcat books and academic journal articles.

Other changes include:

• switch to the generic {{citation}} template to better support journals and books as well as websites
• add support for new fields: issn, doi, volume, issue, pmid, publication-place and others
• add automated scrape tests for more common websites
• persist the removal of deleted keys from the template
• add in-browser tests for parsing behaviour
