Description

**Describe the bug**
Modern android on-screen keyboards allow to send gifs and stickers right from the keyboard itself.

On element, it's unsupported.

**To Reproduce**
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
1. Go to a chat
2. Click on the message box
3. Use android keyboard to pick up a gif or sticker. I use Samsung built-in keyboard app, in case it matters.
4. Element will lead you to the chats list so you can select which one is going to get the sticker or gif.

**Expected behavior**
Sticker or gif added as message.

**Smartphone (please complete the following information):**
- Device: Samsung SM-J600FN
- OS: Android 10

**Additional context**
- App version and store 1.0.12 [40100121] (G-b965) - google play.
- Homeserver: recallstack.icu
