Research direction

Start at the termux-notification media entry point and inspect how notification actions are currently defined and handled. Determine how tap and long-press actions should be specified for one media notification, then verify the behavior with mpv. Done means a single notification supports actions such as seeking and playlist navigation without requiring another notification.

Description

Feature description

Im using termux-notification --type media to control mpv. I would like to be able to bind more actions to buttons based on action type like tap and long press so I can trigger seek backward/forward 5s or go backward/forward in playlist (I can create another notification for that but it would be more convenient to have single notificacation).
