Cockatrice: Have links for game rooms

[skwerlman]

About half of the games I see on my server have the name of a player as their description, since that makes it easier to find for the players who didn't create it.

Being able to right click a player's name and invite them to any game you are involved in would make setting up games with your friends a bit easier, since you could just invite them, and not have to specify which room, what description, etc.

I think this should be limited to inviting buddies, since being able to just send out tons of invites would probably cause issues on larger servers.

Don't forget about that draft rooms... so buddies + people that you share a game room with

You don't know who has you marked as a buddy, so restricting to that is not
great. I think limited count would be good. What about an alternate idea
for a purely client side feature, having clickable links to game rooms?
Right click your game, copy link, posting to chat would do
[game]1234[/game], that tag would get parsed into some clickable
representation. You could pm the link or for a draft share it in the chat.
This wouldn't need any protocol changes or server updates

👍 for links.

Any invites should somehow be non-blocking to the recipient.

My chat link suggestion would do that

Relabeled to allow for "game://ROOM_ID" of some kind, to join the room
