Filled in all the info from issue 7 (the last issue I sent) to see how it would look in the new auto-generated newsletter format

Added dynamic date, issue number, start text and end text to newsletter template

Created a function to format the date and issue number nicely using the data from Airtable

Set up issue metadata fields as issue_num, date, start_html & end_html

Made articles automatically end up in sections in the newsletter generator
