Comment:

 Implemented support using libgepub in
 b2109fcdc802565bb148b8d2be6d2b38920fa7e8.  There are automated tests with
 EPUB 2 and EPUB 3 files exported from libreoffice.

 Currently libgepub 0.6 or 0.7 should work, but CI only tests 0.6 due to
 that being what's available on the Ubuntu versions there.

 Author and title are extracted successfully.  Page count is set to the
 number of "chapters" which seems about as close as we can get since each
 chapter seems to be an HTML document.  I wrote code for `GEPUB_META_DESC`
 but I don't see that actually appearing from the example files I tried
 with.

 The EPUB format seems to support some other metadata types, but I didn't
 see how to get them.
