Include reactions associated with messages in the generated WhatsApp chat HTML preview.

Also including who reacted and when could be useful in particular cases.
To avoid making the visualization too long/verbose, this additional information could be shown only when the user hover a reaction element.

An example:

Testing with iOS databases using the most recent WhatsApp version, I noticed that reactions were not extracted.
It uses a blob field with variable data encoded as a Protobuf to store any "additional information" related to a message.
So it is quite annoying to understand and decode.
I found an issue in the decoding process that I implemented, triggered by these new databases.
I am running more tests (with newer and older DBs) to be sure it is more solid now.

Despite the changes in the newer databases, in fact the issue was caused by the last commit I made (19b3ec0).
I will submit a fix to handle iOS reactions properly.
