More option to embed links

[hjmaier]

Due to the new privacy laws in Europe, I had to disable to possibility to embed links. I would like to see more options in the admin area, so I have a better control over the embed links. What I would like to have:

• When I deactivate embed links, Links to my forum are also not embed any more. I would like to have the option, that it will work for internal links only
• I would like to have the possibility, to chose which content I am allow to embed:
  YouTube: Yes
  VIMEO: No
  External Images: Yes
  ...
• When I deactivate embed links, images are also excluded, even if I activated the option to use the internal proxy. I would like to have the possibility to embed external images by the internal proxy.

+1 for those requests. 

Moreover, as I was 'promised' by invision support during 4.2.x branch, that we would have more features towards GDPR in our 4.3.x backends. Haven't found it yet, anyone else has? As the deadline is 25th of May. And we prefer not to get fined.

@rhyker2u I found a litte work around. I block unwanted content with CSP. Or better: I will. I am struggling a bit with the corrrect setting.

Just added the first one to the plugin I previously released to handle the second one:

"Allow remote images" in the Posting options already handles that.

You've deactivated the "Automatic" embedding of links - as long as you still "Allow remote images", then the user can still do that manually via the following option.
