More informative notifications in TUI #553

Description

Currently if you do toot notifications, for boosts and favourites it 1) tells you whether it is a boost or a favourite, and 2) includes the username of the person who boosted/favourited it.

However, there isn't any such indication in the TUI. It just shows the post, and while you can see the post stats showing the boost/favourite count, you cannot see whether that particular notification is a boost or favourite, and you can't see who boosted/faved it.

It would be nice if there were a line above the post similar to the CLI output saying "[username] [boosted/favourited] your status". And maybe additionally, if instead of one's own handle, the notification entry in the timeline was something like "[Boost/favourite/mention] by [username]"—though I can see how that might be more difficult to implement.
