Major rewrite + new Features

This release is a major update for the Broken-Links-Crawler. Many thanks to @aceberle for making all these changes.

You should definitely check out the new Readme file to see whats new. However the migration to this version should be straight forward as there are no breaking changes we know of by now (Please open an Issue if you have any trouble updating to this version).

Here is a list of the most important changes

• Moved to asynchronous code (aiohttp)
• Added a fully fledged testing suite

New Feature to exclude url prefixes

Thanks to @NieTiger we now have the option to specify exclude_url_prefix in the actions config. This allows us to exclude not only url prefixes like mailto: but additionally links to sites like https://linkedin.com (which are known to block bot requests).

Fix verbose config value

With the last release the verbose flag was broken. It's now back to normal again.

New Features

• Automatic retry for failed requests (seems like GitHub Actions sometimes has a bad connection? Or my testing server is not that good xD)
• fix verbose mode flag

Marketplace relase
