📄 Description

Really liked the project, thought about rich presence buttons.

Seen discussion in this issue and decided to make a simpler implementation while there isn't anything else. This basically makes a configurable search query link to a preferred platform in hopes that people will be able to find the song there.

The 3 new parameters are generated in the config by default:

[format]
button_enabled = true
button_text = "Search on YouTube"
button_link = "https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=$artist - $title"

Here's how it may look like:

If disabled or text/link aren't specified, the button will not be added.
