  [Notifications] Competing notifications when two alarms kick at the

Bug description:
  A cousin of bug #1354406

  Some of the early testers are hitting a use case that we didn't
  account for, that of multiple alarms set for the same time.

  Indicator-datetime currently tries to pull up notifications for, and
  play sounds for, both notifications. That's happening by accident and
  is clearly not the right approach.

  I can think of a couple of approaches we might take:

  -- SOLUTION --
  If 2 or more alarms have been triggered, the notification at any time will display:
    Title: 2 Alarms
    Subtitle: [Label 1] 10:00, [Label 2] 10:01

  The sound of the first alarm will be played. If they have the same
  time, the one that has been created first.
