This commit changes the thread view to a new UX concept where children views of the selected view are now presented as chat bubbles, and the entire tree of conversation is shown flattened. New interactions, layout, and design changes have been introduced to revamp the user experience.
Testing
-------
Device: A mix of iPhone physical devices and simulator
iOS: A mix of iOS 17 versions
Damus: A mix of versions leading up to this one.
Coverage:
1. Unit tests are passing
2. A select few users have been using prototypes versions of this as their daily driver
3. Layout tested with an eclectic mix of threads
4. Posting new notes to the thread works
5. Clicking on reply quote view takes user to the mentioned message with a momentary visible highlight
6. Swipe actions work
7. Long press on chat bubbles works and shows emoji selector. Adding emoji sends the reaction
8. Clicking on notes selects them with an easy to follow transition
Known issues:
1. The text on the reply quote view occasionally appears to be off-center (in about 10% of occurrences). The cause is still unknown
2. Long press will still show the emoji keyboard even if user is on "onlyzaps" mode
3. Quoted events are not rendered on chat bubbles. When user posts a quoted event with no text, that could lead to confusion

Changelog-Added: Completely new threads experience that is easier and more pleasant to use
