Description

On Android, clicking on a top-level notification currently does not do anything. The user needs to click on the caret menu to expand and show the individual topics, which can then be clicked to open in the app.

To make it easier for the user to open up the notification, clicking on a top-level notification should make it expand to show individual topics.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate the current notification handling code in the Android module, specifically the `handleNotificationTap` or similar function. Look for how the expanded state is managed for top level notifications and how tapping triggers the expand action. Trace the flow from `onNotificationOpened` or click event to the UI expansion. The CZO discussion linked may contain relevant hints.
