Added On3 DB Industry Comparison widgets.

Updated 247Sports player stats embed. Their video player cannot be embedded anymore and has been disabled.

This update fixes an issue with XenForo 2.3 that causes embeds to be loaded eagerly (rather than lazily) if the user is an administrator and template names debugging is enabled.

Also, somehow Palpatine returned Bleacher Report was still present in last update. It's now been properly removed.

XenForo 2.3 adds a new feature allowing public content to be embedded in any page. This update adds support for your forum to embed the publicly accessible content of any XenForo 2.3+ forum that has enabled this feature.

How to configure: go to your admin panel, go either to this add-on's options or to the XenForo entry in the BB code media sites menu, then add the hostname of the XenForo 2.3+ forum you want to embed from. Make sure that the target website runs XenForo 2.3, which at this time is a very short list.

Mastodon now supports more types of URLs. Also, the list of allowed hosts can now be edited on the Mastodon media site page directly rather than in the add-on's options.

Other miscellaneous changes include:

• Bits and options related to the now-defunct Amazon embeds have been removed. The temporary Amazon media site is still present and associate tags are still handled. There should be no functional change compared to previous version.
• The requirements have been officially bumped to XenForo 2.2, as I don't think anybody is running XenForo 2.1 on PHP 8.0.
• The Find in page feature now works with unquoted attributes.
• Some unused code has been removed, some PHP declarations added. No functional change intended.

URLs on the captivate.fm domain(s) are directly supported. Players embedded on custom domain/websites can be found through the "Find in page" option in the "Insert media" dialog of the post editor.

Also, the 𝕏's and TikTok's oEmbed endpoints have been updated.
