As a user, I want to be able to open a subreddit directly from a notification so that I don't have to open my default Reddit app and navigate to the sub manually.

Acceptance

[ ] the new content notification contains a link to the sub
[ ] clicking on the link opens the sub in the default Reddit app
- [ ] if the user has no apps for Reddit, it will open the link in a browser

After some initial investigation, adding a link isn't as straightforward as I thought. I was hoping I could just include a web style link in the text and let the OS determine what to do when clicked. Instead, I can attach a handler for when a notification is clicked on, but can only take one action on this. This may have to be a feature for after I have per subreddit settings.
