Support MSC2312 (matrix: links) #2333

Description

@aine-etke

Describe the problem

MSC2312 is part of the Matrix protocol for a while, and supported by both browser engines ( https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1688030 and https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=1169258 ), but it looks like Cinny doesn't support it yet, so to share a link to a specific room/user/event with a Cinny user, there is no simple way (both matrix.to and manual copy/paste methods have own disadvantages)

Describe the solution you'd like

Use https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Navigator/registerProtocolHandler to add support of matrix: links to Cinny

Alternatives considered

  • matrix.to (centralized web service, blocked in some countries)
  • manual copy/paste sharing (just inconvenient)
