Problem
The Telegram notification feature currently accepts a single chatId, so a job can only post to one chat. It would be nice to be able to DM several users individually (for example to send the same notifications to your partner). Also that way you avoid creating a Group and adding the bot to it which migth be annoying and if missconfigured (in Telegram), might not be private.
Proposed change
Allow the existing chatId field to accept a comma-separated list of chat IDs. When more than one is provided, the adapter sends the same message to each recipient.
Example value:
123456789, 1001234567890, 987654321The approach would be better using comma instead other approaches. Just because a comma-separated list requires zero UI changes and no config migration. Users who already have a single chatId saved keep working without re-saving anything so no need for significant changes for already "deployed" instances.
