chat: add copy text entry to message menu (#8271)

As we don't have selection inside the chat right now (which might be
complicated to implement, e.g. cross element selection and markdown
blocks), I think its viable to support copying the whole text of a
message using the message menu:

Release Notes:

- Added option to copy the text of a message within the chat
```
