Allow sending bundled embeds #1547

Description

@Raupinger

Describe the problem

There's lots of reasons why you wouldn't want to do server side embeds, especially for encrypted rooms.

Describe the solution you'd like

A little thing popping up over the message field when you enter a link that tells you that a bundled embedd can be generated. When you klick/tap on it, it turns first into a progress indicator and then a preview of the embed. (generate embeds based on OpenGraph)

Alternatives considered

Client side embeds can be done when viewing messages and as I understand that is an option for YouTube rn, but those come with the risk of potentially ddosing smaller sites. Also it leaks everyones IP to the host of that site instead of just the senders.
