Proposal: <podcast:link>, <podcast:shop>

[PofMagicfingers]

<podcast:shop [platform="spreadshirt"] url="https://spreadshirt.com/my-shop">Our merch !</podcast:shop>

This channel tag allow to link to a shop.

It is very similar to podcast:funding as it's a way to support the show, but maybe could be useful to be more specific if it's a donation or shop link. Let me know if you think this is relevant or not.

<podcast:link url="https://myproducer.com">Our producer website</podcast:link>

This tag allow podcasters to add any link at channel or item level, that is not a social, funding or shop link. It could be one of their websites (not the podcast main one, it's given by the<link> rss tag), any partner or producer, anything.

This tag could also be included in podcast:person tag as discussed here

It allows users to add "custom links" as a provider point of view.

This is a transfered proposal from our former project podCloud/podcast-ext and may be redundant with some already existing tags here. See #173 for details.

Proposals should not have several proposals in one issue. The shop could be incorporated into podcast:funding

I proposed them as one issue, knowing they would probably be merged together or that shop would be too redundant with funding.

I can remove the shop one if you want this issue to be cleaner.

Don't have to remove it, that's was this discussion is here for.

I proposed the use of podcast:links with nested podcast:link to solve the use of subscribe, social and share links. What I proposed would also handle "shop" or "donate" or "fundme", or what ever else anyone wants to call it.

Having it nested makes it easier for parsing the XML with Javascript for specific uses such as XLS templates.
