Subject: [PATCH] Cut the trailing feature lists out of every description

The About box, the meta description, the og and twitter tags and the JSON-LD all
ended in a tacked-on list of features: "Updated hourly", "Free JSON API, no
signup", "Plain JSON, no key". None of it describes what the thing is, and the
meta description ran past where a result gets truncated anyway.

Four strings collapse to two so they cannot drift apart again. SUBTITLE is the
line under the wordmark and the social description; DESCRIPTION is the meta
description, the JSON-LD description and the GitHub About box. Both say what the
site is and stop.
