URL previews #1838

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Classic Element has URL previews in the timeline. EX doesn't yet.

Describe the solution you'd like Port over URL previews from EI to EXI. Also, give option to display them in E2EE rooms (for users who'd like them at the expense of privacy).

It would be really nice if we could implement URL previews like other apps do, by bundling them inside the event so that they could be enabled on E2EE rooms without compromising user privacy.

There's now an MSC for bundling them too 🎉 https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals/pull/4095
