src/Tweeper.php: only override the User-Agent to a mobile one for twitter.com
Using a mobile User-Agent made it possible to scrape twitter.com again
but it also had side effects: it was forcing facebook.com to serve the
mobile version too.
However tweeper expected the desktop version of facebook.com so this was
breaking support for facebook.com
Scraping the mobile version of facebook.com would be inconvenient
because the xsl would have to be rewritten extensively, and also the
date of posts is not readily available as a timestamp in the mobile
version.
So override the User-Agent for twitter.com only, this makes the code
a little uglier but it works well enough for now.

Elements in an RSS item description are not supposed to have a style

the identity template.
This also fixes an issue with Twitter images being shown with a offset
in liferea.

Validate the scheme to prevent leaking information by abusing the
file:// scheme.

the system running tweeper.

earlier versions.

Antonio Ospite [Sat, 29 Oct 2016 17:17:00 +0000 (19:17 +0200)]
tweeper.php: support "application/octet-stream" as an enclosure content type
This allows binary attachment without a more specific content type to be
supported for the enclosure element.
Adding "application/octet-stream" also covers the weird case of servers
sending multiple Content-Type headers, e.g.:
< HTTP/1.1 200 OK
< Server: Apache
< ETag: "
a46d495ba00c35580f83344dd523ece2:
1473631283"
< Last-Modified: Sun, 11 Sep 2016 22:01:22 GMT
< Accept-Ranges: bytes
< Content-Length:
14346711
< Content-Type: audio/mpeg
< Content-Type: application/octet-stream
< content-disposition: attachment
< Date: Mon, 26 Sep 2016 23:36:11 GMT
< Connection: keep-alive
< Content-Type: application/octet-stream
< content-disposition: attachment
In this case the ideal solution would be to use the more _specific_
content type, but CURL just remembers the _last_ one ad it's not really
worth parsing the HTTP headers in tweeper just for this rare scenario.
