Research direction

Use the Flickr scheme list and the two oEmbed examples in the issue as the starting point. Add support for https://flickr.com/photos/* without www.flickr.com, then verify that non-www Flickr photo and gallery URLs are recognized.

Description

stale

Flickr contains the following scemes at the moment:

- http://*.flickr.com/photos/*
- http://flic.kr/p/*
- http://flic.kr/s/*
- https://*.flickr.com/photos/*
- https://flic.kr/p/*
- https://flic.kr/s/*
- https://*.*.flickr.com/*/*
- http://*.*.flickr.com/*/*

Shouldn't we add: https://flickr.com/photos/* (without www.)
The flickr oembed endpoint seems to support non-www URLs:
