Description

I think it would be great to customize the incoming messages tone, because on Macs it sounds like an app just installed. Giving more customization options could be a huge opportunity for caprine.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Implement a preference to allow users to select a custom notification sound file, store the path, and use Electron's notification API to play it. Research how Caprine currently plays notifications and where preferences are stored.
