Move user message metadata outside the chat bubble

[dbalders]

What Changed

Added a wrapper div around user chat messages so only the message content keeps the gray background, while the timestamp and action buttons render outside the bubble on the white background.

Why

Fixes #832 - Just feel this has a better look, especially for longer messages so there isn't a huge gray area below every message.

Note

Move user message metadata outside the chat bubble in MessagesTimeline

Restructures the user message layout in ChatView.tsx so the action toolbar sits below the bubble as a sibling element rather than inside it. The bubble is now wrapped in a right-aligned flex column container, sized to its content with w-fit, and the toolbar gets slight right padding (pr-1) to align with the bubble edge.

Pull request overview

This PR updates the user-message layout in the chat timeline so the “bubble” background applies only to the message content (text/attachments), while the timestamp and hover action buttons render outside the bubble on the page background—addressing the UI concern raised in #832.

Changes:

• Wrapped user messages in an outer flex column container and moved the metadata/actions row outside the bubble container.
• Adjusted sizing/alignment classes to keep the bubble fitting content while preserving the existing max width constraint.
