Read receipt and typing notifs of person on ignore list shouldn't be shown

[Bubu]

Describe the bug
If I ignore a person, that persons RR is still shown along the timeline. Element-web doesn't do this.
Typing notifs are also shown from an ignored person. Element-web does do this as well.

To Reproduce

• Ignore a person
• Have that person actively read a chat you are in
• See the RR next to new messages

Expected behavior
RR of ignored person is not shown.

Additional context

• App version and store: 1.1.0-F
• Homeserver: bubu1.eu

It also shows typing notifs of ignored users. :-(

According to the spec, it's not clear to me if read-receipt and typing notification (so ephemeral events) have to be filtered out by the server or by the client.

I would argue that it could have more sense that the server filters them out. The less the clients have to compute things, the better the perf.

@anoadragon453 what do you think about ephemeral event filtering for ignored users?

Also there are other problems to fix about ignoring users, with higher priority: https://github.com/vector-im/element-android/labels/feature%3Aignored_users

Read-receipts are PDUs though afaik?

Updated the issue with the information that ele-web also suffers from the typing notif problem, even though it does do the RR one correctly.

Yes this is element-hq/element-web#6552
