#34429: Slack embeds look super ugly

 With oEmbed enabled, Slack's built-in link previews are filled with
 uglified JS, instead of the actual content.

 Slack are currently looking into it, but have been quite slow to respond,
 and we certainly can't ship 4.4 with this behaviour still occurring. The
 fallback is to disable the oEmbed response when the `Slackbot-
 LinkExpanding` UA is detected, so that Slack will scrape the content from
 the page, instead.

 (If anyone has better ideas, this would be the ideal place to share them.)
