Hypercontext/linkifyjs v3.0.0 on GitHub

BREAKING CHANGES

React, jQuery and Element interfaces moved to dedicated packages at linkify-react,linkify-jquery and linkify-element respectively:
Remove default class="linkified" from all discovered links. Opt back in by setting the className option:
```
linkifyStr(str, { className: 'linkified' })
```
Remove default target="_blank" attribute for discovered URLs. Opt back in by setting the target option:
```
linkifyHtml(str, {
  target: (href, type) => type === 'url' && '_blank'
})
```
React component: Remove outer <span> tag wrapper in favour of tag-less React.Fragment for React >=16. To opt back-in, set tagName='span':
```
<Linkify tagName='span'>{content}</Linkify>
```
AMD module interface is no longer provided. Use an ESM bundler instead.
Plugins imported after linkify is called on a string for the first time will not longer work. Import all plugins before calling a linkify core or interface function.
Custom plugin API is not compatible with previous API in Linkify v2
Dropped support for Internet Explorer versions 9 and 10. IE11 is still supported
Dropped support for React versions <15

Use dedicated packages linkify-string and linkify-html instead of linkifyjs/string and linkifyjs/html. The embedded packages will be removed in v4.0
Use dedicated plugin packages linkify-plugin-[PLUGIN] instead of linkifyjs/plugin/[PLUGIN]. The embedded packages will be removed in v4.0
