Don't jump calendar around for events which appear in the future compared to the timestamp in the URL.
This sort of situation occurs often for Gitter imported historical rooms where we have a bunch of history that is timestamp massaged intermixed with a bunch of join events which we couldn't timestamp massage at the time.

- Fix https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-public-archive/issues/7
- A URL with time looks like
- `/r/too-many-messages-on-day:my.synapse.server/date/2022/11/16T23:59`
- Or when more precision is required (seconds): `/r/too-many-messages-on-day:my.synapse.server/date/2022/11/16T23:59:59`
- Add new custom time picker/scrubber (pictured below) with momentum scrubbing
- Native built-in `<input type="time">` for easier picking if you prefer that and accessibility.
- Uses localized time strings
- Design inspired by Thiago Sanchez's *Time Zone Translate* concept, https://dribbble.com/shots/14590546-Time-Zone-Translate

Summary:
- Changes the "Jump to next activity in room" to actually continue you to the next 100 messages ahead. Previously, it only jumped you to the single next event in the room which meant a lot of backwards overlap each time.
- Jumping this direction will also start your scroll position at the top of the timeline to continue reading seamlessly `?continue=top`
- Adds "Jump to previous activity in room" to the top of the timeline to continue reading the previous part of the conversation.
[1]: There is a caveat with seamless here which is also commented on in the code:
> XXX: This is flawed in the fact that when we go `/messages?dir=b` it could backfill messages which will fill up the response before we perfectly connect and continue from the position they were jumping from before. When `/messages?dir=f` backfills, we won't have this problem anymore because any messages backfilled in the forwards direction would be picked up the same going backwards.
(need forwards fill MSC)
We have to figure out our own layout but does get rid of some of the `RoomView` boilerplate.
The `TimelineView` still has outside boilerplate styles to work.
There shouldn't be any visible change.
The main benefit we're getting from this refactor is semantics, `Escape` to close modal, and focus lock.
We have one existing modal with the Developer Options.
This refactor is happening so it can be used to add a new homeserver in the homeserver selector on the room directory page, https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-public-archive/pull/87
1. Add surrounding messages to the given messages so we have a full screen of content to make it feel lively even in quiet rooms
- As you scroll around the timeline across different days, the date changes in the URL, calendar, etc
2. Add summary item to the bottom of the timeline that explains if we couldn't find any messages in the specific day requested
- Also allows you to the jump to the next activity in the room. Adds `/:roomId/jump?ts=xxx&dir=[f|b]` to facilitate this.
- Part of https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-public-archive/issues/46
3. Add developer options modal which is linked from the bottom of the right-panel
- Adds an option so you can debug the `IntersectionObserver` and how it's selecting the active day from the top-edge of the scroll viewport.
- In the future, this will also include a nice little visualization of the backend timing traces
