Make doit new_post offer the new metadata-file-free format

[kadefor]

I think the metadata format could be changed to ":title:" "📅" ... because they are "docinfo" in restructuredtext.

@ralsina to avoid surprising new users, rather offer it by default; in any case, is there a reason why nikola still supports separate metadata files after the change to make it optional?

But docinfo is visible.

But docinfo is visible.

maybe we can use docutils.core.publish_parts as 'parts'.

the docinfo as meta is in parts['docinfo'], and the post's body is parts['body'] that don't include the docinfo.

Done as part of the plugin support.
