On Android (and mobile in general), let me copy a link's URL from a chat message via a long-press, e.g. through a popup/context menu.
Current behavior
Tapping a link in the thread text opens it, which is the right default. But there is no way to grab the destination URL itself — long-pressing a link does nothing, so copying an address requires opening it first and pulling the URL out of the browser.
Proposed behavior
Long-pressing a link in a thread message shows a small menu with at least a Copy Link action (copying the exact destination). "Open" stays the tap default.
Notes
This is the mobile counterpart to the desktop "Copy Link" context-menu action tracked in Copy Link is missing from the chat link context menu #4155 — that issue is specifically about the desktop right-click menu in the integrated browser, so it does not cover mobile long-press.
Reverse/related actions worth considering for the same menu: "Open" and "Share".
