[FEATURE_REQUEST] Direct redirection based on URL parameters #2360

Description

@marcopaganini

Is your feature request related to a problem? If so, please describe.

As a keyboard-focused user, I have configured a personal web-server (aliased to http://r) which fetches the first element of the URL path, consults an internal configuration table, and then jumps to a given URL based on that parameter. This makes it very easy, for instance, to type <Ctrl-L>r/jelly in the browser and end up on jellyfin. It's also possible to create a custom chrome search with "r" (or any other string) as the parameter, so people may just type "r jelly" to open the jellyfin page, etc.

This is very convenient, but does not offer all the features of Dashy, so I need to keep two versions of my configurations.

Describe the solution you'd like

It would be awesome if dashy supported something like this. Ideally, each configuration item could have an extra config parameter in YAML, say, url_param. So something like jellyfin would be:

- title: jellyfin
  icon: sh-jellyfin
  url_param: jelly
  url: https://jellyfin.foobar.org

This would cause a request to http://dashy/jelly to redirect to https://jellyfin.foobar.org, without the user having to type anything else.
