Bug fixes

• Plethora of fixes and improvements for the reworked chat window (#7223):
  • Let messages fade away instead of instantly closing when closing the window.
  • Add options to mute the new unit and resource share chat messages.
  • Unit and resource share messages now send to all allies instead of privately to the receiver.
  • Fix not being able to see messages when observing after the game ends.
  • Notify messages for observers show who sent them.
  • Make the shared units camera link move the camera instantly.
  • Allow clicking the text of a message to use its camera link (instead of only the small camera icon). Originally you could only ctrl+click the text to copy it to clipboard.
  • Fixed live observers being unable to see ally-only and private messages.
  • Fix not being able to click the camera link unless you opened the chat window.
  • Chat window no longer automatically closes while the text input is being used or if moused over.
  • Prevent loading versions < 5 of the “Emojis” mod by 4z0t since it no longer works with the chat rework.
