Long pressing a malformed link crashes the app (self.boostforlemmy)

Long-pressing the link in [https://lemmy.ml/comment/7302466](this comment) will cause Boost to crash.

The link markdown is wrong, with the URL in the text tag and the destination tag empty, but this shouldn't crash the app.

Alternate test link in case the commenter fixes it: https://www.example.com

Yes, but Boost should show an error toast when it encounters problems like this instead of crashing. Tapping the broken link already does show a toast.
