When Collapsed Reply Threads are enabled, @thread would cause a mention and auto-follow the thread for every participant, including the root post author.
This should only appear in the autocomplete of the RHS or Thread Viewer. If @thread is typed out in the center channel it should render as plain text and not appear in the autocomplete
Also add "thread" to the list of restricted usernames
Note: This needs to be implemented on both webapp and mobile
