Get album by album ID? #153

Since the search only returns 4 entries for Albums, I thought I would try to search using the website and get the album ID then play through spotify-tui.

I tried entering an album ID in the search, but nothing showed up.
Example, for the url from the official web client: https://open.spotify.com/album/36hINABvTw8IboESGhkHV2

I entered 36hINABvTw8IboESGhkHV2 hoping the album would show in the "Albums" section but it did not.

Perhaps I am not doing this correctly or the option does not exist?
I was able to get the album to show up from the search if I entered several more "words" in the search text, but the ID would be a nice shortcut.

I really like this program! I am using it with spotifyd and it works perfectly. spotifyd allows me to control the output device more conveniently.

I think we should allow the search input to recieve the spotify URL (rather than just the ID), and open that up.

There is a PR here doing something similar but for playlists https://github.com/Rigellute/spotify-tui/pull/91/files

This should be handled by #623, however, you'll have to give the Spotify URI or full share link.
