Handle cases where the article ID isn't in 6th position 2018-08-21T00:11:00+00:00 Teddy Wing 2018-08-21T00:11:00+00:00 36758fd1ff687ee062d0403930aad85c7477d9bf In this example: https://www.npr.org/sections/thesalt/2018/08/20/636845604/beer-drinking-water-and-fish-tiny-plastic-is-everywhere the article ID isn't in the position we expect it to be, and we instead get `08` as the `article_id`. Instead of expecting the article ID to always be in the same spot, look for it in the second-from-last position. 
In this example:

    https://www.npr.org/sections/thesalt/2018/08/20/636845604/beer-drinking-water-and-fish-tiny-plastic-is-everywhere

the article ID isn't in the position we expect it to be, and we instead
get `08` as the `article_id`.

Instead of expecting the article ID to always be in the same spot, look
for it in the second-from-last position.

Since the site doesn't provide a function to do this, make a mechanism
to do it automatically.

The text mode version is light and doesn't track visitors.

In order to redirect to the text version of the article, we pull out the
article's ID and use it in the text mode URL.

Thanks to these MDN docs explaining how to parse query string arguments:
