Purpose

rel="me" is a commonly used way to show that that two websites or social media accounts are the same, and is used for authentication and proving site ownership in a variety of ways. This PR adds this to all http/https contact links, piggybacking on the existing noopener value.

Documentation

None should be required.

The uptake of rel me appears to be very limited. We can perform similar semantics in the JSON-LD issue that is open.

Also, the proposed change may be invalid in a number of cases such as for organisations linking to discussion forums etc. which do not belong to them?
