Allow redirecting to an instance of choice from an instance not chosen to be used #1058

Description

@JacksonChen666

This is especially useful for multiple tabs on the same (possibly broken) instance after just doing a "Remove + Auto-Pick instance".

Example of annoyance:

  1. Open multiple Reddit links, and find the instance you have configured doesn't work (or re-open old tabs with old instances)
  2. Remove + Auto-Pick instance (or even remove + switch)
  3. You cannot redirect to the new instance for other tabs, and you must manually replace the domain or re-open the links (both of which is annoying)

Basically, when you're on an instance that LibreDirect has, but isn't part of your favorites, LibreDirect basically just doesn't recognize it (and it's annoying). My suggestion is to add a button (and a shortcut, maybe not separate but instead re-used with redirect to a different instance shortcut?) to redirect from an instance not part of your favorites to an instance part of your favorites.
