[Bug 1599297] [NEW] One should be able to request the URL for a specific crash report

[Launching Dumplings]

Public bug reported:

As I said in Bug #1599295, when one submits a crash report and it for
some reason fails to open a browser tab/window with the reporting bit
one is unable to find the URL to go to as Apport just silently fails
(though does log something to syslog).

So I think that as well as the other bug being fixed, it would be really
good if one could specify a crash signature or a .crash file and then
ask Apport to provide the URL to the uploaded contents where one can
then properly report the crash in question (perhaps this could be done
by a command-line option or something).

I am running Ubuntu GNOME 16.04 with GNOME 3.20.
