New feature link preview

[phofmeier]

Overview

Added feature to wait for a Link Preview.

Successfully tested with Chrome Browser and Chrome-Driver 110.0.5481.77
Not tested with anything else.

Related to Issue #25

Implementation

• A link preview appears above the text input if a link is part of the message.
• A function was added which waits until the height of the preview is bigger than 0.
  • Height is polled every second until it is bigger than 0 or a timeout occurs.
• After a timeout the message is sent even if no preview appears.
• Waiting for this preview is disabled by default and can be enabled with a flag insend_message and send_direct_message

This is cool @phofmeier

I see here you on the wait_for_link_preview(self, timeout=30) method, The timeout time to wait for the preview is configurable but you haven't provided the same flexibility when it's getting called in send_message() or send_direct_message() where the only configurable parameter is whether to enable or disable it.

Also Just to clarify is there some test you've run to make the 30s the default time to wait for the preview to show?

I changed the argument to provide access to change the timeout.

The time needed seams to be depending on the link and the used system. On my Andorid phone it most time needs around 5s and on IOS 1s. It looks like there is no good default value to provide.
