/**
 * Renders all shortcodes for the BNFW plugin's email message, such as using with https://theeventscalendar.com/extensions/formatted-event-date-shortcode/
 * Note that BNFW version 1.6.2 does not run do_shortcode() at all so this adds such functionality. Also, its own shortcodes aren't *real* WordPress shortcodes; they're just str_replace's.
