Template Meta usage

To be used in a template for the whole page, you can add a url in the Yaml Front matter:

---
title: Social networks
author: François Parlant
description: adds a list of social networks sharing links
url: https://fxpar.github.io/Pandoc-Lua-Markdown-Bootstrap/
---

It can then be used in the template, for example in a bootstrap dropdown in the navbar:

<nav class="navbar sticky-top navbar-light bg-light">
  <div class="container-fluid">
    <button class="navbar-toggler" type="button" data-bs-toggle="offcanvas" data-bs-target="#offcanvasExample" aria-controls="offcanvasExample" aria-expanded="false" aria-label="Toggle navigation">
      <span class="navbar-toggler-icon"></span>
    </button>
	
	<!-- Sharing links dropdown -->
	$if(socialblock)$
	<div class="btn-group" role="group">
		<button id="btnGroupDrop1" type="button" class="btn btn-Light dropdown-toggle" data-bs-toggle="dropdown" aria-expanded="false">
		  Share
		</button>
		<ul class="dropdown-menu dropdown-menu-end" aria-labelledby="btnGroupDrop1">
		
		$socialblock$
		 </ul>
	</div>
	
	</div>
	$endif$
</nav>
