This PR adds lib functionality to improve Text Messaging in the following ways:
onedirectional "Info"-messaging to all rooms (including main room for backlog reasons?) AKA Broadcast
onedirectional "Info"-messaging to a single (Breakout) Room
bidirectional "Private Messaging" across all rooms
Keep in mind that broadcasting messages should only be allowed for moderators maybe and only work within the same conference, not across conferences.
Current behaviour:
Message to any room, except the joined room returns an error message from the websocket.
Message to any participant outside the own room returns nothing.
Proposed behaviour:
Message to any room within the boundaries of the conference by a moderator should be allowed, as well as broadcasting a message to all rooms in the conference.
Private messages from any participant to another participant in a different room should be allowed.
Please tell me what you think about this.
I am not experienced enough to create a PR on the backend, so that side will be missing entirely.
