timeline.retweets option

[erdnaxeli]

I like to know who have done a retweet. I saw that you add this info in the source message, but it is not shown on Riot. So I propose to add a room option timeline.retweets to select how to show retweeted status:

• root (the default): show the retweeted status like any other status, this is the current behavior
• rt: show the status from the user doing the retweet, with RT @user_retweeted: blabla

I've added a column in the timeline_room table to save this parameter.

If the rt parameter is selected, we need to rewrite the the tweet.text field, because the original one can be truncated (and its a badly, truncating even links).

If my not really sure:

• about the fact of getting the parameter from the db for every tweet
• about the names root and rt

about the fact of getting the parameter from the db for every tweet

This is fine. You are unlikely to exceed any disk IO barriers, plus I believe sqlite caches values so it's not a problem.

about the names root and rt

Hmm. That's a tough one. I'd use "default" and "compact"?
