Description

### Your use case

#### What would you like to do?

Receive notifications for reactions to messages.

As I said on https://github.com/element-hq/element-meta/issues/2927#issuecomment-3146431713:

> Would be nice if it could be toggled per-chat/room or could be configured to default to enabled for one-to-one conversations with anyone who is marked as a `Favourite`. It's something I use frequently to respond/acknowledge as it's something people tend to get notified for on the likes of Facebook Messenger, so can often miss acknowledgements/confirmations from people due to this.

#### Why would you like to do it?

Recreated the issue as a feature request as per https://github.com/element-hq/element-meta/issues/2927#issuecomment-3150033035

#### How would you like to achieve it?

A toggle as mentioned in https://github.com/element-hq/element-meta/issues/2927#issuecomment-3130662894

### Have you considered any alternatives?

Element is king of Matrix clients. :- )
