Adding a reaction to a message in a thread sometimes increases the notification count / marks the room as unread #21433

Description

@novocaine

Steps to reproduce

  1. Open a thread
  2. Add a reaction to someone else's existing message
  3. See the room unread count increase (often to > 1) even though there's no new messages

Outcome

What did you expect?

For the unread count/marker to not change

What happened instead?

The unread counter changes unpredictably, or the room gets marked as unread.

The outcome isn't consistent and it doesn't happen on all threads. I suspect its related to #21414
