ELIZA IV: Putting it all together

Now you're going to put everything from the previous exercises together and experience the magic! The match_rule(), send_message(), and replace_pronouns() functions have already been defined, and the rules dictionary is available in your workspace.

Your job here is to write a function called respond() with a single argument message which creates an appropriate response to be handled by send_message().

Get a response and phrase by calling match_rule() with the rules dictionary and message.
Check if the response is a template by seeing if it includes the string '{0}'. If it does:
- Use the replace_pronouns() function on phrase.
- Include the phrase by using .format() on response and overriding the value of response.
