Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I would like to use Audiobookshelf from within Waze like I can with other audio apps. This would allow me to quickly pause, step backward, etc. Right now I need to minimize the waze app, open audiobookshelf, and then hit pause.

Describe the solution you'd like

I'd like audiobookshelf to be available as an audio app choice within waze, just like Audible and Spotify are.

Note that this may not be an audiobookshelf issue, it might be something that needs to be added to waze, but I can't imagine you need to "partner" with Waze for that functionality.

It looks like this will need to be done on the ABS side. From initial research, ABS needs to add/update intents so other apps can recognize ABS as an audio app.
