This is a pretty simple way for us to track which webmentions are sent
by Ghost. Although it's easily spoofed, so are other approaches like
using a header (e.g. User-Agent). If we find that this data is being
spoofed we can look at different approach.
Becuase our receiving implementation stores the payload of the
Webmention, we'll be able to know inside Ghost which Mentions
originated from another Ghost installation, which is useful for stats
and gives us the possibility to display that information in the feed.
Longer term we might want to consider storing this data in a separate
column for Mentions, rather than the `payload` column - but that is
outside the scope of this change.

- sends email notifications to staff users when their site receives a Webmention.
- currently behind a flag, that can be toggled in the labs settings.
Based on a discussion in slack we want to make all metadata properties optional,
with the exception of the title, which will default to the host of the source
URL if it's missing.
This is so that we can accept as many webmentions as possible and convert them
into Mentions. If we were to have strictly validation, we'd end up having to
drop webmentions that didn't match our criteria, and lose important data.
Giving the title a default allows us to provide a consistent UI experience too.

This is the initial stab at having everything wired up, we're not
using a queue but we are handling the processing of the Webmention
asyncrounsly so that the HTTP response can be end immediately.
We've also laid the groundwork for extending and implementing the
correct processing of Webmentions, for example checking if the target
URL exists in the system, pulling out the metadata from the Webmention
source and fetching any internal resources.

We've made these fields optional, and we may need to extend this to other fields
too as we discover more about the data we're able to get access to.

This extends the mock API to use a more formal pattern of moving our
entity code into a separate package, and use the service/repository
patterns we've been work toward.
The repository is currently in memory, this allows us to start using
the API without having to make commitments to the database structure.
We've also injected a single fake webmention for testing. I'd expect
the Mention object to change a lot from this initial definition as we
gain more information about the type of data we expect to see.
