Subject: [PATCH] aerc: Enable mailto functionality for aerc

Explanation here:
https://man.sr.ht/~rjarry/aerc/configurations/mailto.md

I built a custom script 'aerc-in-terminal' since I want to expand the
$TERMINAL env var and use that instead. `.desktop` files do not allow
expanding vars (since they don't run in a user shell), so this is a
compromise.
