- when adding a recommendation, we fetch the recommended site's metadata
- before this change, if the metadata fetch failed for some reason, we'd show an error and block the recommendation from being added
- after this change, we use fallback values if the metadata fails to fetch, instead of blocking the recommendation from being added. We use the site domain as the title and leave the rest empty (no favicon, no description)
- this change also means we are not checking whether a site exists or not for the publisher anymore. It’s then up to the publisher to make sure they don’t enter broken URLs

E.g. you recommend myghostsite.com, while that site redirects all
traffic to [www.myghostsite.com](#):
The redirect causes CORS issues, which means we cannot detect
one-click-subscribe support.
- This is fixed by moving the whole detection to the backend, which has
the additional benefit that we can update it in the background without
the frontend, and update it on every recommendation change.
- This change also fixes existing recommendations by doing a check on
boot (we can move this to a background job in the future).
fixes https://github.com/TryGhost/Product/issues/4005
We no longer use the 'reason' of a recommendation, but allow a flexible
description instead. Because this is a breaking change in the API, we do
this before making this feature GA.
- Added new database utils for renaming a column
- Added new migration to rename the column
