Vefna v1.1.0 — Serve, watch, and drafts

Vefna v1.1.0 adds a built-in preview server, a watch mode, and draft pages — the things
you reach for while actually writing a site. It's built with Torvik v1.4.0 and uses
Torvik's new std::net for serving.

New

vefna serve [port] — build the site and host it at http://127.0.0.1:8000 (or a
port you choose), rebuilding automatically when a source file changes before the next
request. Binary assets stream intact.

vefna new myblog
cd myblog
vefna serve

vefna watch (and vefna build --watch) — rebuild continuously as sources change,
until you stop it.

Draft pages — a page with draft: true (also yes / 1) in its front matter is
skipped by default; pass --drafts to build, watch, or serve to include drafts. The
default build reports how many were skipped.
