Support replay IDs in chat

[micheljung]

People often enter replay IDs in chat, like #12345. Currently there is an IRC bot who recognizes this and posts a link in order to download the replay. Instead of this, the client should turn such IDs into links.

Whenever a user clicks on such a link, the client should open the replay in the replay vault.

Is there any way the client could detect its a proper replay id instead of just checking for /#\d+/? I guess, if possible, we should prevent creating links in messages like "I'm the #1 supernoob!" .

[micheljung]

Other than checking for whether a replay actually exists (but that should be the case for about numbers 1-3'000'000), we could have a different format like replay:1234 but that seems less convenient ;) And I think the false positives are negligible.

Look at my PR i don't know why its not shown here, but i implemented a copy Link button and had replay Links being opened by the client and not the browser.

The issue ID needs to be linked in the PR description in order to show up here. Title is not enough.

Can we close this since it's merged

well I think it used to work but was removed again in some refactoring
