feat(render): Implement Markdown thread rendering & Gravatar

Implements a new thread rendering pipeline which all posts and the
main thread body are first converted to a `RenderablePost` structure.

During the conversion to this structure, the post body is rendered as
Markdown and the author's email address is converted into the format
required by Gravatar.
