refactor(@desktop/general): added modules InputArea, Messages, Users

Each `ChatSection` module contains as many `ChatContent` submodules as many chats
the section contains (a chat maybe either from the Chat section or Community section or
from the category of the Community section).

`ChatContent` consists of 3 submodules `InputArea`, `Messages`, `Users`, so far.
