New silo: Bookwyrm

[JoelOtter]

Adding the Bookwyrm federated book-tracking app as a suggested new silo. It appears that right now there isn't an API yet but I thought it would be useful to have a ticket to track this.

Meant to add I'd be happy to take on this work myself once their public API exists

Thanks for filing and offering! Developer instructions for adding a new silo here, contributions and PRs welcome.

Also, looks like this one is part of the fediverse and supports ActivityPub. Awesome! That means the other approach here is via Bridgy Fed, which already speaks ActivityPub. First step would be to try to interact with BookWyrm via Bridgy Fed and see whether/how much that already works.

So I had a little look at using it via Bridgy Fed - the issue I think is that Bookwyrm define a few of their own status types on top of ActivityPub; Bridgy Fed would presumably need to add specific support for those which is probably out of scope.

Hmm! Definitely not out of scope, probably fine, depending on what they are.
