feat: URL preview support

from upstream MR https://gitlab.com/famedly/conduit/-/merge_requests/347
with the following changes (so far):
- remove hardcoded list of allowed hosts (strongly disagree with this,
even if it is desired, it should not be harcoded)
- add more allow config options for granularity via URL contains,
host contains, and domain is (explicit match) for security
- warn if a user is allowing all URLs to be previewed for security reasons
- replace an expect with proper error handling
- bump webpage to 2.0
- improved code style a tad
