Track the user's own typing state external to the composer

Fixes element-hq/element-web#9986

There's a few reasons for pushing this out to its own place:
* In future, we might want to move WhoIsTyping here.
* We have multiple composers now, and although they don't send typing notifications, they could (see https://github.com/vector-im/riot-web/issues/10188)
* In future we may have status for where/what the user is typing (https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/issues/437)
* The composer is complicated enough - it doesn't need to dedupe typing states too.

Note: This makes use of the principles introduced in element-hq/element-web#8923 and element-hq/element-web#9090
