Add bake preview_link task and bin/preview-link for ad-hoc link previews

Builds a link post via Pressa::LinkPost, builds the site for http://mudge:8000
(blog-server.service serves www/ straight off disk), prints the preview URL,
then deletes the local post file again. No git pull/commit/push at all --
used by the mudge dashboard's new 'Publish Beta' button to preview a post
without committing anything.
