Add per-link preferred app selection for opening links

[Copilot]

When opening a link shortcut, Android shows a chooser dialog if multiple apps can handle the URL. This adds the ability to pin a specific app per link so it opens directly without the chooser.

Database

• New openWithPackage TEXT NOT NULL DEFAULT '' column on Deepr table (migration 10.sqm)
• Updated insertDeepr, updateDeeplink, importDeepr, getLinksAndTags queries

Link opening

• openDeeplink() and createShortcut() now set intent.setPackage() when a preferred app is configured
• Home screen shortcuts created via ShortcutInfoCompat also respect the setting

UI

• New "Open with App" dropdown in the Add/Edit Link screen, populated via PackageManager.queryIntentActivities()
• "System Default" option preserves existing chooser behavior
• Shows "App not installed" if the saved app was uninstalled

Data flow

• LinkRepository → LinkRepositoryImpl → AccountViewModel updated to thread openWithPackage through insert/update paths
• All import call sites (CSV, local server, Google Drive sync) pass empty default

Firewall rules blocked me from connecting to one or more addresses (expand for details)

I tried to connect to the following addresses, but was blocked by firewall rules:

• dl.google.com

If you need me to access, download, or install something from one of these locations, you can either:

• Configure Actions setup steps to set up my environment, which run before the firewall is enabled
• Add the appropriate URLs or hosts to the custom allowlist in this repository's Copilot coding agent settings (admins only)

<issue_title>Is it possible to have a link shortcut always open a specific app?</issue_title>
<issue_description>Hi - I have added a link shortcut to my home screen, however when I click it it prompts me to choose from several apps I have installed that say they are able to open any links, like this:

However, I always actually want to use my browser to open the link. Is it possible already, or would it be possible to make it, so that a specific app is always used to open a link, rather than needing to choose each time?

Thanks, the app is very useful for what I need otherwise!</issue_description>
