(Non Fosdem 2022 related) As a Host/Coordinator I wish to tell the bot a speaker is not here for a QA without needing to do it in penta #108

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. The Bot is very aggressive fast, if someone is missing (which is great) but as a Host/Coordinator I want to mute it if I know a speaker cant show up. Otherwise it is very chatty/spammy.

Describe the solution you'd like A reaction action on the bot messages to mute it would be great.

Describe alternatives you've considered Apparently this gets synced via penta, but penta is sadly quite slow to work with, and also I would like a more matrix native way as the coordinators and hosts likely will mostly be in matrix while the conference runs.

Additionally, this would be nice if someone wants to use the bot with another backend. I didn't check how much penta is tied into the bot though. (Seems like it isnt much. After fosdem I likely make some PRs on this part)
