Modify ePub v1.8.1

Release Notes:
https://github.com/kiwidude68/calibr...fy_epub-v1.8.1

@JSWolf - defaulting to 3 pages in isn't something I could agree with - found too many book examples where that makes no sense. The problem is there is no guarantee about what convention publishers choose for naming their covers/title pages for the plugin to identify it. Some give it the same name as the book, rather than something nice like any of "cover", "cvi" , "tp", "titlepage", which I am now detecting.

I have however made a change so it defaults to being the second page in and then keep incrementing that number until it finds a page it "guesses" is not a cover or a titlepage, based on those names above. There are books out there though (if they havent had a calibre conversion) where this still won't be "ideal" - e.g. a book that has no cover page at the start but instead 3 pages of quotes about how great the book is before a title page would now have this jacket inserted between quote pages 1 and 2.

Personally I think the jackets got hit too hard with the ugly stick and I never use them so it is not something I am going to do extensive testing on. But if someone can please try the release at the link above and give me feedback, otherwise I will just push it out to everyone in a few days...

EDIT: I have now officially released this version.
