Copy what tantek did by using h-pronoun to link to pronoun.is and

Microdata: fix relative urls, add a11y metadata
- Add a11y metadata to transcribed images to communicate the presence of
  a transcript
- Fix relative urls in navigation: make them absolute urls, so that the
  parsed navigation elements have the correct destinations.

This also switches image transcripts from a section with a heading to a
div with an ARIA label. That should reduce duplication between the
<summary> content and the heading while still being semantically sound.

This removed the need to use one of the regex replacements in the

Better example of bad custom colors
Add a better screenshot showcasing bad custom colors. Also give it a
figcaption.

The figcaption meant that I had to revise a statement later down when I
said I don't use figcaptions for images.

Add You.com under Bing, remove ask.moe
Ask.moe uses Google Custom Search now, so it's not a search engine
anymore; it's a search client.

Lots of people asked about You.com so I put it under Bing.
