Add post summaries, featured images and a page outro
Recreating gizmolab.net as a blog showed three things the design system could not express, all of them ordinary blog features: - Listings can show a summary and a "Read more" link instead of the whole post (theme.list_style). The summary is the source up to <!--more-->; without the marker a Markdown post is cut at a block boundary after 70 words (never inside a code fence) and an HTML post is shown whole, since cutting hand-written markup blind would leave tags open. Computed at render time (Post.Excerpt/HasMore), nothing new is stored. - A post can carry a featured image (posts.image, a library file that is unset when the file is deleted): a thumbnail floated beside the entry on listings, and on the post page above or below the text, or not at all, as theme.post_image says. The picker is the design page's imagepick; its library panel moves out of design.html into partials/imagelib.html so both forms share it — which also removes a stale pickAction call the design form's click handler would have hit. - A page can have a closing text after its posts (pages.outro_md/html), in the intro's format: the per-page counterpart of the blog-wide "after the posts" module, for a home page that ends in a site map or a widget. The editor partial takes formatof to share another editor's Format row, and its upload field is now <name>_file so two editors fit in one form.
