Description

Feature description

I want to be able to show either the play or pause button and not both for termux-notification with --type media.

Currently, when I omit one, the buttons don't show at all.
Related: [#787]

Alternatively, you can just collapse the two into a play/pause button

Reference implementation

Have you checked if the feature is accessible through the Android API?
Do you know of other open-source apps that has a similar feature as the one you want? (Provide links)

Research direction

Start by tracing how termux-notification handles the --type media option and how its Android media notification buttons are built. Check the related issue #787 and the Android notification API behavior, then verify that specifying play or pause shows only that control, with the chosen behavior covered by a reproducible test or manual check.
