request: allow for using a custom handler/opener, or xdg-open as an alternative to the current way(which opens the wrong browser for me) #98

Description

@erikLundstedt

I use a custom setup on my system that uses a program called jaro instead of xdg-open to open links(and other things too, its an xdg-open alternative)

however, when I try to open a link in tym, it opens the wrong program(firedragon (firefox-fork installed for testing) rather than vivaldi or firefox (depending on url as i have it open some things in firefox and the rest in vivaldi)

so my question now is: would it be possible to have something like a wrapper around os.execute() or io.popen() that wont freeze tym

(probably) relevant parts of the code:

context.c:

void context_launch_uri(Context* context, const char* uri)

called by builtin.c:
context_launch_uri(context, uri);
