Description

### Your use case

#### What would you like to do?
It would be great to have the bottom sheet actions consolidated, so it doesn't take up the entire screen and require scrolling in some cases to reach items.

#### Why would you like to do it?
Right now, the bottom sheet on message actions is messy, and requires users on normal (non-gigantic) phones to scroll to see all options.

#### How would you like to achieve it?
Adding dropdowns and pairing the options together that make common sense, as well as adding the more emojis option to the suggestions at the top.

### Have you considered any alternatives?

We could consolidate view edit history and reaction list into one "message history" panel
