[Feature Request] deep link support #71

Description

@dizzib

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Allow another Android app to open OpenBible at a specified book and chapter (and optional verse).

Describe the solution you'd like
OpenBible should accept a deep link URI like openbible://BOOK/CHAPTER/VERSE where /VERSE is optional. For example, openbible://jhn/8/12 should cause OpenBible to open John 8:12 at verse 1.

Ideally the accepted 3-letter book-id would correspond to these but I can add mappings if they are different.

Also, it would be great if the Android back button in OpenBible would navigate back to the opening app (in my case Bible Feed). Currently YouVersion is the only app I have found which does this correctly, the others only navigate back within themselves.

Describe alternatives you've considered
none

Additional context
This would let me integrate OpenBible with Bible Feed (I have already integrated Logos, Olive Tree and YouVersion on Android).
