📄 Description

Summary

Fixes #821.

item.find(p) returns either an ElementTree.Element or None. The lambda on line 24 coerces the return value to a bool, which is False if the <link> element has no children (see ElementTree.py line 207), so the lambda returns None.

Further, returning a Link with url=None violates an assertion in index/schema.py, which crashes the archivebox add command.
