Description
### Your use case
#### What would you like to do?
I would like there to be a way to enable/disable sending read receipts in more specific cases (e.g. per-room, per-space, per-DMs, per-public...)
#### Why would you like to do it?
I am ok with people seeing my read receipts in some places and I am not ok with it in others
#### How would you like to achieve it?
Settings
### Have you considered any alternatives?
A per-room setting is the bear minimum - I don't want to change this manually for half of my ~200 rooms

Research direction
Start by reviewing the requested Settings behavior and the linked Element Web issue #14030. Trace how read receipts are currently configured across Element clients, then define supported scopes such as rooms, spaces, direct messages, and public rooms with clear acceptance criteria for each.
