Description

The current Message View/Reader relies on a number of data sources and the MVC pattern. Create a viewmodel that we can use to create a stateflow of immutable message reader view data objects.

AC for this is simply that the message reader viewmodel is created, can be injected, and has the basic elements of a viewmodel. We'll work on porting over the functionality of other classes into it and potentially a state machine function or class it will make use of
