Townsquare - add url shortener on message box

[developerfred]

User Story

I would love to have a native link shortener in the message box, every time I add a link it automatically shortens it.

e.g: gitcoin.co/xhshash

Additional Information

PyShortners

Work has been started.

These users each claimed they can complete the work by 1 year, 10 months ago.
Please review their action plans below:

1) pbteja1998 has applied to start work (Funders only: approve worker | reject worker).

Will have to find us in the message, we can do this using regex, we can then replace each each url found with its shortened url.
2) developerfred has been approved to start work.

I have already started work on this issue, every time an external link is posted, this link will be reduced.
3) thecydonian has applied to start work (Funders only: approve worker | reject worker).

This seems fairly simple, so I will use PyShorteners to implement this quickly
4) cyril-attie has applied to start work (Funders only: approve worker | reject worker).

I will be happy to help on this by downloading pyshorteners, writing a module, let you review it, improve it and iterate
5) tota999 has applied to start work (Funders only: approve worker | reject worker).
