Due to an oversight of mine, 2440037639 actually removed the ability to see the one-on-one layout on mobile. This restores mobile one-on-one calls to working order and also avoids showing the spotlight tile unless there are more than a few participants.
If no one had spoken yet, we were still showing the local user in the spotlight. We should instead eagerly switch to showing an arbitrary remote participant in this case.
* Add DeviceMute widget action `io.element.device_mute`.
This allows to send mute requests ("toWidget") and get the current mute state as a response.
And it will update the client about each change of mute states.
* review + better explanation
* review
* add comments
* use `useCallback`
We've concluded that this behavior is actually more distracting than it is helpful, and we want to try out what it's like to just have the importance ordering and visual cues help you find who's speaking.
We're finding that if we reorder participants based on whether their mic is muted, this just creates a lot of distracting layout shifts. People who speak are automatically promoted into the speaker category, so there's little value in additionally caring about mute state.
The Compound design tokens package is now set up to generate React components for every icon, so we no longer need to use our more error-prone method of importing the SVGs.
Ensure that they don't interfere with say, using spacebar to press a button, and also ensure that they won't do surprising things like scroll the page at the same time.

This took a couple of iterations to find something that works without creating update loops, but I think that by automatically informing Grid whenever a layout component is re-rendered, we'll have a much easier time ensuring that our layouts are fully reactive.
We no longer allow individual tiles to be put in full screen, because we're seeing what it's like to just stretch the spotlight tile edge-to-edge and keep the margins minimal.
Includes the mobile UX optimizations and the tweaks we've made to cut down on wasted space, but does not yet include the change to embed the spotlight tile within the grid.
Because we were hiding even the local participant during initial connection, there would be no participants, and therefore nothing to put in the spotlight. The designs don't really tell us what the connecting state should look like, so I've taken the liberty of restoring it to its former glory of showing the local participant immediately.
