General

 * Chat
 * Servers can now enable chat preview, which displays a server-controlled preview above the chat edit box.
 * When enabled, a server-controlled preview appears above the chat edit box, showing how the message will look when sent.
 * Can be used by servers to preview messages with styling applied, such as emojis or chat coloring.
 * Chat Preview sends chat messages to the server as they are typed, even before they're sent.
 * The server then sends back the styled preview in real time.
 * This allows servers to apply dynamic message stylings while still allowing chat to be securely signed.
 * A warning screen is shown on the client when joining a server with chat preview, and it can be globally disabled in Chat Settings.
 * Dynamic chat styling can also be controlled by the server, although this is only signed when chat preview is enabled.
 * Clients can prefer to always show the original, signed message by enabling "Only Show Signed Chat" in Chat Settings.
