📄 Description

At the moment, there is no easy way to add a photo for an author, if one isn't found during a (quick)match

This PR adds a new text field 'Photo URL' on the author edit modal, shown only if there is no existing image for an author. When submitted the image is saved from the URL provided, using the existing AuthorFinder.saveAuthorImage() method.
