Show notification when Syncthing has alerts#136

Syncthing's web UI shows 5 types of alerts: * A reminder to restart the service when changing certain config values (currently only options related to audit log files). * New remote devices attempting to connect. * Remote devices attempting to share new folders. * Errors reported by slogutil.ErrorRecorder. * Errors when watching folders for changes. This commit adds support for detecting all of those except for the 4th one. Unfortunately, there is no unified way to handle all of these so alert type needs its own event handler. It is too painful to add support for retrieving errors from slogutil.ErrorRecorder since the entire slogutil package is private. On the UI side, things are intentionally kept very basic. The Android notification just shows how many Syncthing alerts there are, but not the nature of the alerts. When the user taps on it, it will open Syncthing's web UI.
