Don't stop scrolling at the read-up-to mark.

We want to keep things scrolling up after the read-up-to mark hits the middle
of the screen. Do this by giving the ScrollPanel a stickyBottom (provided we're
not in old history) instead of updating the scroll position when RRs arrive.

Also, when we switch back to a room, if there was no special scroll state, jump
to the end of the timeline instead of the RR mark.
