Description
Ideally, this would work both ways, say sending a video chat link to someone in an email, as well as receiving a video chat link in an email.
(possibly something like https://nexcloud-server/talk/chat-or-requester-id)
Clicking the link in the email/text message should then open Nextcloud-talk and establish the connection.
As sending might involve creating a special url, this might have to be initiated within the Nextcloud-talk app (send invitation link -> choose app to send with).

Research direction
No files or tests are named. Start by reviewing the Android app's existing handling of Talk calls and external links, then determine how invitation links could be created, opened, and connected from messaging apps; done means both sending and receiving a link establishes the intended video chat.
