1.0.0 / 2016-12-??

A complete rewritten of the original cupid@0.1:

• New: use DEBUG=cupid to toggle log behaviours
• New: use liquid-node as the default templating engine
• New: a src/target structure for better planet source and target management
• New: use feed.postSelector option to fetch full articles of the feed

Other changes:

• Remove: cupid-server, because it is a bit unnecessary
• Refactor: a much cleaner planet.json
• Refactor: a much more robust and faster cupid-build
