Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
As a user I have to open the actions menu in the message modal to find attachment upload, enable formatting, etc
Describe the solution you'd like
Move important actions outside the menu, like we did with https://github.com/nextcloud/mail/issues/6976
Users should see the following actions/controls in the modal
- Attachment icon
- Opens a menu with: upload, add from files, add share link
- Formatting (toggle)
- Send later
- Opens a menu with the date/time selection
- 3-dot menu with read receipt and encrypt
- Send button

Research direction
Start at the new message modal and its actions menu, then compare the proposed layout with nextcloud/mail issue 6976. Done means the modal exposes attachment, formatting, send-later, read-receipt/encryption, and send controls as described, with the relevant submenus still available.
