Omit categories from post URLs #17

Description

@MaxGhenis

We're currently using the default URL settings, which add the category(ies) to the URL, e.g. http://blog.pslmodels.org/demo-days/2020/11/23/tax-cruncher.html.

This isn't great with one category, but it's especially bad with multiple categories, as @jdebacker added to the CCC post in #16. That URL would read http://blog.pslmodels.org/demo-days/cost-of-capital-calculator/business-taxation/corporate-income-tax/2020/12/02/ccc.html.

Per this Fastpages forum post, URL structures can be changed globally via Jekyll instructions. For example, URLs could read http://blog.pslmodels.org/2020/12/02/ccc.html, or even something like http://blog.pslmodels.org/ccc. This will break links from past posts, but I think we're early enough that it'd be worth doing now. WDYT @jdebacker @MattHJensen @hdoupe?
