in notedeck app install prompt

not-installed app user story

As a notedeck app enjoyer if I happen upon a link to an not yet installed app, I would like notedeck to prompt me to install said app, so that I can experience said app in notedeck and experience multi-app interoperability benefits.

acceptance criteria

  1. notedeck app link is detected (see #821)
  2. if user clicks on link, notedeck provides a prompt for app to be installed
  3. app details included in prompt should be a) app name b) dev name, npub, nip-05 c) web-of-trust d) short app description
  4. if user clicks yes, notedeck proceeds to install
  5. if user clicks no, notedeck closes prompt

previously installed app user story

see #821

it seems in the near term future there will be at most one app for any given use case. so for now we can just route to that one directly. in a utopian future where there are lots of notedeck apps that could handle the request, we would need to show the top recommended apps from friends and give the user a choice of which one to use. you could also install multiple apps that handle the same request, so we would need an multi-app handler in those cases.

but yeah, this is quite far down the line and assumes this project will be that successful.

it also depends if we want it to be more like the web vs iOS. we could dynamically load apps instead of "installing" them.

that's hardcoded though, we would likely want that app selection nip with WoT
