Subject: [PATCH] Add back underlines to links in posts (#1386)

As mentioned [in Hometown's
README](https://github.com/hometown-fork/hometown#better-accessibility-defaults),
links in posts are meant to be underlined by default for better
accessibility. However, this default was overridden in one of the
stylesheets so [every Hometown instance I know
of](https://github.com/hometown-fork/hometown/wiki/Hometown-servers)
(with the exception of weirder.earth) does not have any underlined links
in posts as of right now. This pull request restores those underlines.
