Add custom tool to send notification

[anki-code]

Hi! Thanks for this xontrib!

It will be cool to have an ability to send notification using external tool.

For example run wsl-notify-send as

sp.check_output(['/tmp/wsl-notify-send.exe', '--appId', 'Title!', '-c', 'Subtitle!', 'Message!']).decode().strip()

instead of this:

xontrib-cmd-durations/xontrib/cmd_done.py

Lines 128 to 133 in 383b6ad

	from notifypy import Notify
	noti = Notify()
	noti.title = str(f"{cmd}")
	noti.message = f'{"Failed" if rtn else "Done"} in {readable}'
	noti.send()

is there any advantage using that? using this library is convenient , that we don't have haggle on each OS

[anki-code]

I mean something like this:

CUSTOM_NOTIFIER = xsh.env.get("XONTRIB_CD_CUSTOM_NOTIFIER", None)

if CUSTOM_NOTIFIER:
    sp.check_output(CUSTOM_NOTIFIER).decode().strip()
else:
    from notifypy import Notify 
    # ...  

and:

$XONTRIB_CD_CUSTOM_NOTIFIER = ['/tmp/wsl-notify-send.exe', '--appId', '{title}', '-c', '{subtitle}', '{message}']
xontrib load cmd_done

could you answer why this is needed?

[anki-code]

To have a way to support WSL until notifypy hasn't this feature (ms7m/notify-py#45).

Thanks now I understand. PRs welcome to add such functionality.
