Description

Somehow we've got this far without users being able to delete messages from their view of a conversation (n.b. this is different to redactions). We obviously need to support it - especially for 1:1 chat.

Research direction

Start with the imported SPEC-108 request and compare it with the existing Matrix specification rules for messages and redactions. The work is complete when the specification clearly defines how users hide their own messages, including the expected behavior for 1:1 conversations.
