Changes to parsing behaviour

Adds an optional experimental option to fallback to parsing meta tags. This was inspired by the metaformats spec but with some significant changes.

• Only parse metaformats if no microformats found (per #microformats chat discussion
• Imply h-entry on all pages if not using a more specific og:type
• Return featured rather than photo on og:image to avoid implying a photo post (matches opengraph-mf2 implementation)
• More complex parsing of media tags to avoid duplicates, handle some variation in property name, and include alt text
• Handle more fallback options like page title

The parsing approach needed to change significantly from the metaformats spec due to a few challenges with tag order. By parsing all the meta tags before creating the microformats item, we can prefer some tags over others and also handle complex tags like og:image + og:image:alt.

Other changes

• Added an isTag('tagName') helper for finding child nodes.

Other considerations

• Should there be a property identifying the mf as being parsed from metaformats in case someone wants to cleanup messy meta tag content
• Should metaformats use og:locale for the lang?
