Support timecodes (hear more on this topic at 03:21:23!) #71

Some podcasts have timecodes for chapterization, being able to click these might be a cool feature.

Youtube has it. See the video description text of this video for example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CBRUjvwAxBE

I would suggest to have a pop-up enabled by default that asks "do you want to skip to ...?" with a "[] don't ask next time" to handle accidental presses.

Here are the substrings to identify as time codes:

[^n:]n:nn[^n:]
[^n:]nn:nn[^n:]
[^n:]n:nn:nn[^n:]
[^n:]nn:nn:nn[^n:]

n is 0-9

[^n:] is any character other than 0-9 or ":", could also be beginning of the description or end of the description.

Imposible timecodes (after end of podcast) should probably be ignored. The time code links should probably only be added once the audio file is completely available.

Example of a podcast that supports it:
https://allesgesagt.podigee.io/feed/aac - search for "00:0" to find first example

People interested in such a feature might want to post examples of podcast that support it.
