Use Alfred's Post Notification action rather than Applescript #60

Currently there is an Applescript bundled with the workflow that is used to show notifications, but it wouldn't win any awards for sleekness. Notifications are displayed with the Script Editor app icon, which is somewhat of a disconnect from Alfred.

One option is to use a Post Notification action in Alfred, which is limited to showing one line of text (since the text coming out of the script filter will be customized based on the command) but includes the Alfred and workflow icons. Another option is to investigate whether the notification features in alp and qWorkflow still work in Yosemite, but for now we'll stick with the native Alfred approach.

The Post Notification action works very nicely. The inability to set the bold title is not a significant limitation since the description at least allows two lines of text.
