Unfortunately a pretty common spam/annoyance online is putting "spam"
via abusing Unicode symbols - which is used for multilingual support -
in display names. This typically results in an unreadable word jumble in
our UI, which looks bad.
So I decided to put a stop to that by clipping some labels that could be
used for this crap. I didn't cover *everything* yet, but this at least
prevents these idiots from showing up in the completion menu, the room
member list and as authors for messages.
This was changed in 9ed5224470 but this
ended up causing all sorts of strange formatting issues like the quick
format bar not working, and pastes from other applications that kept the
formatting.
This happens semi-frequently to me and others - we reply to a user who
has left the room. Sometimes this is useful (for example, bringing up a
previous topic) but in most cases this is accidental, and almost
guaranteed to happen if you turned off join/leave events.
So I added a reminder when replying - which manifests as a small label
in the chatbar - that the user has left and can't be notified of your
reply.
Update `ChatDocumentHandler` so `RoomManger` is no longer required for saving the text in the chatbar between room switches. This is achieved by allowing `ChatDocumentHandler` to get the correct `ChatBarChache` itself rather than having to have it passed from `ChatBar.qml`. This avoids any race conditions.
Separate out a base `MessageContentModel` that can be extended to get the component types from different places. This is used currently for `EventMessageContentModel` but will be used later as part of the rich chat bar.
All display text is now in the text component so it never needs special casing. This also cleans up some of the model parameters so more things come from attributes including location and file data (which was already a qvariantmap anyway).
Also cleaned up the itinerary and file enhancement views,
Refactor TimelineView to make it more reliable and prepare for read marker choice. This is done by creating signalling from the mode when reset which can be used to move the scrollbar to the newest meassage.
Some of the spaghetti is also removed so there is no need for ChatBar and TimelineView to talk directly.
The code to mark messages as read if they are all visible after 10s has been removed infour of just marking as read on entry if all are visible. This is temporary until a follow up providing user options is finished (although it will be one of the options)
We can un-clutter our message context menu, which we had to share
with user actions. (Even though we only had one so far.) I added one new
user-specific action which allows you to quickly mention the user in
chat. Otherwise you would've had to copy their username or use the
completion menu.
It's convergent on mobile, it still has the hover indicator and it also
is available through the AuthorComponent.

This prevents doing actions like zooming in your screen (Meta+Equals)
because it will tripper shortcutOverride and close the menu. Instead, we
shouldn't block shortcuts but still allow closing when Escape is
pressed.
This *does* block all NeoChat shortcuts when the completion menu is
open, but personally I think this is fine. If you have this open, you
really should finish your message first!
In chatBarSizeHelper, if user is in compact mode and resizes the window,
maxWidth would be -1 and that caused something to go wrong with the
padding calculations.
Instead, just set it to root.width with some padding, so it always is
the width of the ChatBar.
Remove the relationEventContentModel function from ChatBarCache as ContentProvider makes it unneeded. This means turning ContentProvider into a QML singleton.
Make `DelegateSizeHelper` take a `QQuickItem` rather than a width value and move `TimelineDelegate` to use it rather than duplicting the code.
This requires the creation of `LibNeoChat` so that both the main and timeline modules can get access to the class.
Note: ideally more stuff will go into `LibNeoChat` but it turns out our dependencies are kinda spaghetti like and so will take some untangling.
Fix showing polls and update the events and PollHandler to make them easier to work with.
Add a PollAnswerModel to visualise poll answers.
Enable sending polls.
Create Message attached property to propagate parameters like room, timeline, index and maxContentWidth down to the message content avoiding lots of boilerplate
Key-specific handlers, such as Key.onDeletePressed implicitly accept
the event. This means that the entire logic for the delete key must
be reimplemented, and e.g. Ctrl+Delete to delete the previous *word*
was missed.
Since all it has to do is handle the typing notification and format bar,
just use the already existing Keys.onPressed handler (which does *not*
accept the event) and add a case for Delete alongside Backspace.
First, the fill mode for the sticker images shouldn't stretch them.
Also make sure there is enough padding in the category so the image
doesn't appear larger than the button. Finally, set the source size for
the images so Qt can smooth them out better.
Currently both Enter and Ctrl+Enter send the message in ChatBar on
desktop. This might be unexpected behavior to users coming from other
chat applications (eg. WhatsApp, Telegram, Element) as those send
with Enter only by default. They allow changing send to Ctrl+Enter
in settings and other option is used to insert a newline.

Move the fucntionality of ActionsHandler into ChatbarCache and ActionsModel.
At this stage there wasn't much left that is was doing and the functionality could easily move.
Rework ActionsHandler as static helper functions.
The functions are now invoked from ChatBarCache so there is no need to pass an actions handler object around qml simplifying the code.
Move reply pane to use MessageContentModel. This means the reply pane component is no longer required.
This commit also limits the size of code and image componets in a reply to keep them from getting too huge.
So at the moment this remains behind the feature flag as this only adds a threadmodel and a basic visualisation. There is much more to come to get it ready for full release.
