Add names and sizes for all attachments except images, and (as with
arbitrary attachments), clicking on the text will open a save dialog.
In the absence of a filename, choose something that makes sense.
Display different icons for different media types, including distinct icons
for voice notes and audio files.
In iOS theme, audio, video, voice, and files are all encapsulated in bubbles.

Sometimes .mov files arrive with content type video/quicktime, but must
be saved to .mov in order for osx to recognize them as videos and open
the appropriate default program, display thumbnails, etc...
// FREEBIE
Make arbitrary files look nicer and display the filename.
If an audio or video element fails to load for any reason, timeout after
a few seconds and render it as an arbitrary file. Also short circuit to
this treatment for common audio and video file types that we know are
going to fail, e.g., proprietary formats from apple.

Despite the "click to save"-description of unsupported file types, clicking them did not save them.
This commit implements a Save-As dialog instead of opening the file in chrome.
// FREEBIE
Messages with images or media were causing the scroll position to jump
around when they loaded, because rendering them changed the height of their
elements from 0 to full-height sometime after they were inserted into
the DOM.
Now when rendering attachments, we wait for them to load so they can
render at full height immediately, then warn our parent message list
before and after a potential height change, so the scroll position can
be saved and reset.
// FREEBIE
Bind the sub-view to some data when we initialize it, rather than
passing it in on render. That means the image view click handler will
only ever open the blob we bound it to, even if its src attr changes for
some reason, which should never happen, but if it does, it's nice to
guard against opening arbitrary urls found in the dom.
// FREEBIE
Images that are attached to messages, either sent or received
can be opened in a new tab by clicking on them.
The previous approach that used Anchors to open the image
attachmets failed in various systems because:
- Chrome on Windows recognised "blob" as protocol and tried
to find an app for it
- Chromium on Ubuntu didn't open a new window to load the URL
The new approach adds a "click" listener to the IMG element and
opens the link using window.open (which seems to be working globaly).
Resolves: #252
Converting attachment data to base64-encoded data uris takes O(n) and
there's no need! URL.createObjectURL returns a magic link that can be
set as the `src` attribute to `img`, `video`, and `audio` tags to load
blob data directly without copying.
