#' Show or remove a notification
#'
#' These functions show and remove notifications in a Shiny application.
#'
#' @param ui Content of message.
#' @param action Message content that represents an action. For example, this
#' could be a link that the user can click on. This is separate from \code{ui}
#' so customized layouts can handle the main notification content separately
#' from action content.
#' @param duration Number of seconds to display the message before it
#' disappears. Use \code{NULL} to make the message not automatically
#' disappear.
#' @param closeButton If \code{TRUE}, display a button which will make the
#' notification disappear when clicked. If \code{FALSE} do not display.
#' @param id An ID string. This can be used to change the contents of an
#' existing message with \code{showNotification}, or to remove it with
#' \code{removeNotification}. If not provided, one will be generated
#' automatically. If an ID is provided and there does not currently exist a
#' notification with that ID, a new notification will be created with that ID.
#' @param type A string which controls the color of the notification. One of
#' "default" (gray), "message" (blue), "warning" (yellow), or "error" (red).
#' @param session Session object to send notification to.
#'
#' @return An ID for the notification.
