nrobi144andClaude Opus 4.8 84a031b931 feat(desktop): enrich the DM chat composer + message UX
Brings the desktop DM experience up to par with a modern chat client,
reusing existing commons/quartz infrastructure throughout.

Composer:
- Emoji picker (org.kodein.emoji, MIT) with search; unicode + NIP-30
  custom-emoji ":shortcode:" autocomplete in one strip
- @mention autocomplete (avatar + display name) inserting nostr:npub
- Reply-quoting: composer bar + a quoted chip on reply bubbles that taps
  to scroll-and-highlight the original (bounce + flash)
- Per-message image quality selector; send-in-progress spinner

Rendering:
- DM bubbles render rich text (mentions resolve to names; image/GIF/
  custom-emoji inline) instead of raw text

GIF search (Nostr-native, no third-party API):
- Query NIP-94 kind-1063 GIF metadata from a configurable relay list
  (nos.lol + relay.damus.io), dedup + client-side filter, animated preview

Uploads / privacy:
- Encrypted DM files upload as opaque application/octet-stream by default
  so the media server can't learn the media type; optional "Reveal media
  type" toggle for strict servers. Only reencode jpg/png/webp; GIF/video/
  AVIF/HEIC pass through. Actionable errors for servers that reject
  private uploads
- Reply/glyph: add a real Reply icon to the Material Symbols subset

Robustness:
- Preserve Messages state (selected room, draft, attachments) across the
  device lock by hoisting it above the lock gate
- Thread the send so the composer always clears and errors surface

Adds unit tests for the GIF merge/filter and caret insertion.
