fix(previews): no genuine preview card for a site a deceptive link only pretends to be (#286)
Previews are built from the plain body, clicks follow formatted_body's
hrefs, and a sender controls both: text "https://paypal.com" linked to
evil.example showed a real PayPal card. Drop body URLs whose site is
only claimed by the visible text of a mismatched link (linkSafety).

Fixes #286
