Héctor Ramos e22abd91bf Add support for video embeds in blog posts.
Summary:
Similar to the Hero image functionality. If a video URL is present in the post metadata, it will be displayed instead of a Hero image. This will be useful when highlighting videos in blog posts.

Renamed ReadMoreLink into a more generic ExceptLink which will display "Watch video" when the blog post category is "videos".

Currently there is no way of listing blog posts by categories, but it may be useful to do so later once we have a larger catalog of content.

Héctor Ramos db621b03b6 Improve social share previews, expand author bylines
Summary:
Several blog and sharing improvements are included in this update.

* A larger default preview image is used when a blog post or doc is shared on social media as recommended by [best practices](https://developers.facebook.com/docs/sharing/best-practices#images).
* Follow other Facebook Sharing best practices such as associating the site with a Facebook Page (React) and a Page Admin (121800083 is my fbid, and I am an admin for the React page).
* If the shared blog post contains a hero image, use it as a share preview image.
* Use actual doc content instead of generic site description when sharing docs.
* Update existing hero images to use the larger recommended size.
* Add titles to each author's byline.
* Add author's avatar to their byline.
* Add Twitter Card support.
* Link to individual blog posts from the title and hero image in the blog index.

Old metadata tags (blog post):
```
<meta property="og:title" content="Toward Better Documentation – React Native | A framework for building native

Summary:
Updated the blog's styling to make it more readable.

* BlogPageLayout (blog index) - Only excerpts from each article are now shown, as opposed to the entire article.
* BlogPost - Broken up into headers, footers. Reorder header so that the blog post title is closer to the content. Adds support for hero images (visible from the blog index). Adds Facebook, Twitter social share buttons. List items are properly spaced now.
