The thumbnail or video preview is generated while the message is posted.
When ffmpeg or libvips can't decode the file (a truncated upload, an .mp4
holding only audio), the error escaped after the message had been saved:
the request failed with a 500, the message was never broadcast, and the
sender's upload stayed at 100% while the rest of the files in that drop
were never sent. Posting the message without a preview keeps the file and
lets everyone see it.

UnreadRoomsChannel streamed from a hardcoded global name, and every message
published its room id to it. Any authenticated user, including one with no
memberships at all, could subscribe and watch which rooms were active and exactly
when, across every closed room and direct conversation on the account. The browser
filters ids it doesn't recognise, but that happens after delivery.
Its sibling ReadRoomsChannel is already scoped per user; this mirrors it, and
message creation fans the notice out to the room's members instead of broadcasting
it to everyone. No message content was exposed either way, only the timing.
