Title: Add support for pubsubhubbub pings

I am submitting this on this branch because it relies on having access to the configuration to build the atom URL (config.site) and to reference the hub_url from _config.yml.

I'm game for updating/changing this as needed. For example:

* I went with `hub_url` instead of `pubsubhubbub_hub_url` but I could change this
* I went with `ping` for the task name, but could change it to `pubsubhubbub_notify`, `notify`, `ping_hub`, etc.

Personally, I always forget how to spell pubsubhubbub which is why I just went with shorter more generic names. :) Having to remember how to type out "rake pubsubhubbub" would get annoying pretty quickly, I think?
