Description

### Your use case

#### What would you like to do?
When getting notified of a message and I read that message on a different device (i.e. Laptop) I would like the notification to disappear at some point without the need to interact with it.

#### Why would you like to do it?
Clean notification area containing only messages not yet read or otherwise interacted with.

#### How would you like to achieve it?
Element X checking current "Read" marker of the user, removing notifications prior to said marker.

### Have you considered any alternatives?

Continue using [element-android](https://github.com/element-hq/element-android) which does this even without the Google notification framework.

### Additional context

_No response_
