Research direction

Reproduce the issue with termux-notification using --vibrate 200,500,200, then compare its vibration handling with termux-vibrate -d 200. Trace the notification path in the Java Android app and verify that the requested pattern produces vibration on the reported environment. Done means the notification vibrates according to the supplied pattern.
