Support itch://launch URLs

[fasterthanlime]

I liked the idea of using cave IDs for this URL kind instead, because:

• They're impossible to guess, so you can't just drop a "Launch my Game" link anywhere on the web
• But programs that should know about them, do - like itch when it's creating shortcuts, launchers like Playnite, etc.

However, that means launchers like Playnite would need to have their own dialog to deal with multiple caves for the same game - maybe that's fine though?

This has been a 4 year old issue for those using Playnite/GOG/Steam and wish to using sandboxing. The choice is to either having to opening the itch client to run the games, or shrug and run the programs without sandboxing.

Is there some technical aspect that makes this a difficult thing to setup?

@Ryonez is there still no way to launch a game through the itchio client automatically?

I have not used the client in some time sorry, so I wouldn't know.
