Custom Sound through Local file path or URI

You can use a local audio file path, a content://, file://, or android.resource:// URI directly:

# Using a local file path
Notification.createChannel(
    id="local_sound",
    name="Local Sound",
    sound_path="/storage/emulated/0/Download/alert.mp3"
)

# Using a content URI (e.g., from media store)
Notification.createChannel(
    id="uri_sound",
    name="URI Sound",
    sound_path="content://media/external/audio/media/123"
)

# Send notification with custom sound path
n = Notification(
    title="Custom Sound",
    message="Playing from local path",
    channel_id="local_sound"
)
n.setSound(sound_path="/storage/emulated/0/Download/alert.mp3")
n.send()

Private files (e.g., in app's data/ directory) are automatically copied to external storage before playing.
