Justin, 8 Nov: a release posted as a tiding showed its IPFS link and no BitTorrent. BitTorrent is what more people know and can open at once, so it's the bigger pick.

- `tidings.torrent_of`: the Release's magnet (name, trackers, webseeds, built as PickiPedia's Release page builds it) and its .torrent URL; None until the Release has an infohash.
- The tiding page shows "Download with BitTorrent" as a button beside ".torrent file", under the meta line. "on IPFS" stays among the small links.
- Before the torrent exists, a line says it's still being made and points to IPFS meanwhile.
- Tests in `test_tiding_release_talk.py`. Screenshots in #uploads-and-embeds' folder: `tiding-torrent-with.png`, `-without.png`, `-phone-dark.png`.
