Auto merge of #15013 - servo:notify-command, r=emilio

Add config to do desktop notifications by running an abitrary command.

<!-- Please describe your changes on the following line: -->

I now have an usual setup where I use a (fast) remote machine for building, and I’m adding a hack to forward end-of-build notifications back to my laptop. This is the motivation for this change, but I kept it general enough that it could be used in other situations.
