Feature request: icon param for notifications

[poblabs]

Outside of the file or attachment parameters, it would be nice to have an icon parameter. This would show up on the android client to the side as a quick visual reference to the alert. I also have another use case where I would use it with windows 10 toast notifications.

Thanks!

@poblabs Would you want something like this:

curl -d hi -H "Icon: https://example.com/myicon.png" ntfy.sh/mytopic

Or (with myicon being configured in the app):

curl -d hi -H "Icon: myicon" ntfy.sh/mytopic

Also, would #155 be enough?

@binwiederhier I think per-notification icon would be a nice touch. That way I only have to sub to 1 topic, but use it for multiple apps. The icon would identify the app within the sub. I suppose I'm not picky though as I could make a new topic for each app - just more overhead to remember it all

+1 on this

I still use Pushbullet for notification mirroring exactly for this reason: notification mirroring without icons (of the app, the contact, or whatever the notification decides to display as an icon) is suboptimal.

Custom icons configured in the app are definitely interesting, but IMHO the greatest potential could come from supporting generic icons as URLs.

Alright! The code is just about done!

Done, next release
