Issue: Bot sometimes logs GIFs and URLs as message updates #24

Description

Occasionally when running this bot and sending a GIF or URL in the target server the bot will log this, even though nothing was manually updated. My best guess is that it sees what Discord does automatically (e.g. rendering the link to the GIF into the GIF itself or adding an embed for a URL) as a message update, and it simply sends the identical source and updated message as a message update log. A simple example was https://github.com, which renders in a text channel with an accompanying embed, where the Logger Bot logged a source message of https://github.com and an updated message of https://github.com as well. Any chance there's a simple fix for this?
