feat: slash commands with autocomplete dropdown

Type / at start of message to see available commands.
Commands: /shrug, /tableflip, /unflip, /lenny, /bear,
/disapprove, /facepalm, /cry, /dance, /hug, /greet,
/me (action text), /spoiler (hidden text).

Autocomplete dropdown with tab-complete. Commands transform
input text client-side before sending. Unknown /commands
pass through as regular messages.
