This fixes a case where a user accepts an invite, which causes a tag change, but the room stays stuck in the invites list. The tag change additionally gets swallowed when the user moves away, causing the room to get lost.
By moving it when we see it, potentially during a sticky room change itself (though extremely rare), we avoid having the room get lost in the wrong lists. A side effect of this is that accepting an invite puts it at the top of the tag it's going to (usually untagged), however this feels like the best option for the user.
A rare case of a tag change happening during a sticky room change is when a leave event comes in for the sticky room, but because it's come through as a tag change it can get swallowed. If it does get swallowed and the user clicks away, the tag change will happen when the room is re-introduced to the list (fake NewRoom event).
Plus a bunch of logging.
This fixes a case where switching rooms would cause the last room you were on to disappear due to an optimization where known NewRoom fires would be translated to tag change fires, which wouldn't re-add the room to the underlying tag algorithm.
By tracking the last sticky room, we can identify when we're about to do this and avoid it.
This commit also adds a check to ensure that we have the latest reference of a room stored as rooms changing from invite -> join change references.
This commit additionally updates the PossibleTagChange handling to be faster and smarter, leading to a more stable generation of the room list. We convert the update cause to a Timeline update in order to indicate it is a change within the same tag rather than having to jump tags. This also means that PossibleTagChange should no longer make it as far as the underlying algorithm.
New logging has also been added to aid debugging.

Disclaimer: this is all of the horrible because it's not meant to be here. Invites in general are likely to move out of the room list, which means this is temporary. Additionally, the communities rework will take care of this more correctly. For now, we support the absolute bare minimum to have them shown.
For example, if you only have 3/10 rooms required for the default then resize smaller, we should have a 'show more' button.
This works by changing the rendering to be slightly more efficient and only looping over what is seen (renderVisibleTiles(), using this.numTiles in place of tiles.length) and using a new setVisibleTilesWithin() function on the layout. Previously resizing the 3/10 case would be setting visibleTiles to ~8 instead of ~1 like it should (because the getter returns a default).
`setKnownRooms` is called to regenerate the room list, and if we don't take the sticky room out of the equation we end up with the room being duplicated. So, to make this easy, we simply remove the sticky room and handle it after the fact.
This small check just ensures that we aren't about to blindly accept that the calling code knows what it is doing. There are some unknown cases where NewRoom gets fired for rooms we already know about, so in those cases we just change it to a PossibleTagChange which is what the caller likely intended.
Many of the edge cases are unknown, though this can happen for an invite being accepted (for example). It's easier to handle it here instead of tracking down every single possibility and fixing it higher up.
When a new room is added there's a fairly good chance that the other events being dispatched will happen in the middle of (for example) the room list being re-sorted. This commit wraps the entire handleRoomUpdate() function for the underlying algorithms in a lock so that if we're unlucky enough to get an update while we're sorting (as the ImportanceAlgorithm splices out what it is sorting) we won't scream about invalid index errors.
We have to do a bit of a dance to return the sticky room to the list so we can remove it, if needed, and ensure that we generally swap the rooms out of the list.
This reverts earlier changes made to textForEvent as they are no longer needed.
This also implements an entire tree of textForEvent-like behaviour as the previews need to be different, which is easiest done with its own stack.
Smaller handle width, small shadow on the top of the show more button if there's more rooms to be shown. The resize handle also only shows when you're hovering in the area now.
The original design called for the shadow to show up only if the user is cutting a tile or dragging, however that is complicated implementation-wise. For speed and encouraging a dogfooding pattern we're going ahead with this behaviour instead.

One of the largest issues with room switching was that we'd regenerate the entire list when the sticky room changes, which is obviously detrimental on larger accounts (and even some medium accounts). To work through this, we simply handle the NewRoom and RoomRemoved causes (used by the sticky room handling) as splices rather than in-place updates.
Overall this leads to a smoother experience as it means we're doing far less calculations and can even opt out of an update if it isn't required, such as a RoomRemoved cause being fired twice - the second one can result in an update not being required, saving render time.
This commit also includes a fix for handling update causes on the sticky room, as the room list loves to print errors when this happens. We don't need to handle any updates because once the sticky room changes it'll get re-added through NewRoom, causing the underlying algorithm to slot it in where needed, effectively handling all the missed updates.
When the user would click 'show more' they would be presented with a 'show less' button that occluded the last room.
Similarly, if they resized the list so that all their rooms would be shown and refreshed the page, they would find their last room covered by the button.
This changes the handling so that showAllClick() sets the height to numTiles + button padding, and adjusts the height calculations on render to deal with relative tiles.
This also removes the conditional padding of the resize handle, as we always occupy the 4px of space. It was leading to rooms getting trimmed slightly by the show N button.
