Closes #2906

Adds 3 different message view modes (instead of only normal/compact):

Most notable is the new 'compact' option, which makes the messages really compact, IRC-style.
The old 'compact' mode is still available, but renamed to 'cozy'

Before:
After:

This does hide the admin/mod etc tags though to save some space, but maybe we should add an option to show/hide it on the admin pages

Also adds an additional option in the user preferences to show or hide usernames in the message template, to potentially save some extra space (could be useful on mobile devices for example).

What about use only avatars?

Hmm I don't know, could be kinda confusing since people tend to not upload an avatar (at least on my server)

Only if you can hoover the avatar and see the username, but this should be configurable and not the default.

I've cleaned up the commit history a bit, and added the option you suggested @engelgabriel

@lucasvanhalst did you add the hover to show the username?

Thanks! I'll have a look at why it's not working on my instance ;)
