Allow individual files to opt out or override URLs set by this plugin

[bguiz]

This patch would allow individual files to opt out from having their URLs set by this plugin, via a flag in file metadata, e.g.

----
dateurls-exclude: true
----

Alternatively, one may override the URLs manually, e.g.

----
dateurls-override: "/2018/07/08/this-post-appears-in-the-future"
----

... any thoughts?

Thanks, looks interesting. The exclude option seems pretty straight forward. The override looks like to could use a bit more error checking, in situations where the override path is invalid. Thoughts?

Ah, that did not cross my mind. Let's see, off the top of my head, I think
the following would be necessary:

• path begins with /
  • 'foo/bar' --> /foo/bar
• clean up trailing / according to options passed in
  • '/foo/bar/' --> /foo/bar (if that's what the options configured)
• discard any hash fragments
  • /foo#bar --> /foo
• special characters escaped
  • /foo bar --> /foo%20bar

Any others come to mind?
