Robin Jarry 45bff88515 open: allow overriding default program
Instead of xdg-open (or open on MacOS), allow forcing a program to open
a message part. The program is determined in that order of priority:

1) If :open has arguments, they will be used as command to open the
   attachment. If the arguments contain the {} placeholder, the
   temporary file will be substituted, otherwise the file path is added
   at the end of the arguments.

2) If a command is specified in the [openers] section of aerc.conf for
   the part MIME type, then it is used with the same rules of {}
   substitution.

3) Finally, fallback to xdg-open/open with the file path as argument.

Update the docs and default config accordingly with examples.
