add fbclid to set of ignored uri params

"Fbclid can be decrypted as a Facebook Click Identifier (“Facebook Click Identifier”) by analogy with Google Click Identifier – GCLID. The GCLID parameter is used to exchange data between Google Analytics and Google AdSense"

-- https://fbclid.com/

We ignore gclid here, https://github.com/hypothesis/h/blob/ebf0e64fe03ac70a9131fe80180d62e28012f176/h/util/uri.py#L81, and should ignore fbclid too.

See document_id 774748 for an example of why. A site's canonical declarations create disjoint sets of annotations, one set bound to the base URL, one to the fbclid variant.
