rTorrent/ruTorrent integration

[solid-pixel]

Hello,
Thanks for Notifiarr and all the incredible effort you put into it, it's truly amazing!

Would it be possible to add integration for rTorrent/ruTorrent like what's already in place for qBittorrent?
Sonarr and Radarr already integrate very well with them :)

In case you don't know the software in question:

rTorrent
a text-based BitTorrent client written in C++, based on the ncurses and libTorrent libraries for Unix.

ruTorrent
a web GUI to slap on top of rTorrent

Here's a couple of links you might find useful:

Thank you!

#118

I saw that before posting, but they're not really related.
Flood, like you said in #118, is just a UI wrapper for various torrent clients: https://flood.js.org/

Not everyone running rTorrent will also be running Flood, so I guess it'd make more sense to integrate it with rTorrent so that also people running Flood can use it, as it connects to the root software rather than a UI only few people use :)

Yea, it wouldn't be specific to flood. it would use the rtorrent api same as Deluge, QBT, Sab, nzbget, etc do

@solid-pixel I have not been able to find any rTorrent users to test the new integration. I have not been able to do anything with it yet, so it's likely buggy as can be. Are you able to jump on Discord so I can get you setup with a test build and some instructions?

Also, @solid-pixel or anyone else familiar with rTorrent.. Please have a look at this logic and tell me if anything seems wrong about it. https://github.com/Notifiarr/notifiarr/pull/238/files#diff-f8239804b8f85103210d9905c188d8b7cb0f2f32268c0e20f6a940f289fa4228R52-R83

I do not know how to tell if a torrent is in an error state, so we need to figure that out too.

@davidnewhall awesome thanks for working on this so promptly!

As for the logic I'm not sure I can help, I have no clue how these things work behind the scenes 😅

As for testing, sure, no problem! I'll DM you on Discord so we can schedule some time for that, what's your name there?

Thanks a lot!
