respect robots.txt #1

@eriktks

Description

@eriktks

Add respect for robots.txt rules before visiting websites, to default browser plugin.

Notes:

  1. Allow users to provide list of URLs, one per line
  2. If line does not contain URL, assume DOI and convert to: https://doi.org/DOI
  3. Assume opening url list is user-generated action, equivalent "Open All Bookmarks" in Firefox: no robots.txt checks required
  4. Assume opening detected PDF links found by software as bot action: robots.txt check necessary
  5. Offer blocked PDF links as clickable link on status page of browser plugin, see issue build extra tab for control and status #2
