Check Broken Links in WebdriverIO

I had a viewer ask about checking broken links in WebdriverIO. It's a great question (although WebdriverIO may not be the most appropriate solution as there are tools that can do it quicker).

It covers a lot of details, from selecting multiple elements, using 'map' and 'forEach' on the results, and integrating other node modules in to your tests.
