[Bug]: Notes field EntryRow cannot show full contents (except scrolling while editing)

[nekohayo]

Describe the bug

Kind of a follow-up to #917 (comment) now that I can test it as part of the nice 0.8.x release. The notes field does not allow reading longer contents.

One easy (but not touch-friendly) way to workaround this for starters could be to simply show the contents in a GtkTooltip on hover. It would at least be better than nothing, I guess.

Another more complicated way could be to use the approach mentioned in the comment linked above:

Should it be split into two? :

1. textview just to display it
2. an "edit note" button on the profile menu with a dialog for editing it

Or maybe a GtkLabel in a row (with the edit button), somehow?

Essentially you are hitting the same presumed widgetry limitation issue as https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/nautilus/-/issues/46#note_2136093 ; is there a widget that can actually accomplish this?

Steps To Reproduce

1. Write a long note on someone's profile

As it is, it should still be readable - even if terrible for longer inputs - by editing/clicking on it and scrolling/moving the cursor.

Yep, it's the same issue as the nautilus one. I can either create a custom row with a text view, do my suggestion on that other comment, or maybe an action row with a button?

But that button will either show a popup with an entry or a dialog etc
