Implement smart notification system with intelligent content analysis

Browse Source 
Major improvements to notification handling:
- Replace blanket skip_notifications with content source analysis
- Immediate notifications for external mentions, DMs, and posts from others
- Smart sound selection based on content type (mention/DM/timeline_update)
- Remove focus-based auto-refresh blocking for seamless background updates
- Fix notifications timeline AttributeError from removed skip_notifications
- Track user actions to prevent sound spam from own expected content
- Context-aware suppression only for user's own posts, not external content

User experience improvements:
- Never miss external mentions or DMs due to timing issues
- Auto-refresh works regardless of timeline focus
- Appropriate sounds play immediately for genuine external notifications
- No redundant sounds from user's own post actions
