To add support for video-timestamp links (similar to YouTube, clicking a linked timestamp will skip the video to the timestamp) we need a way for artists to create these links.

After discussion with @railla we decided the best way to do this on a markdown level is with a new shortcode. Suggested format is as follows:

{timestamp text="rendered text" time="92"}

Which would then render as something like:

01:32

Which I can then write a JS function for.

This solution won't work in flat pages and blogs where multiple videos are displayed, but inside of an asset modal and on training it should work fine.
