[Story] Advanced settings for hiding invite avatars and timeline media

[manuroe]

Description

• As a user
• I want to choose if the app displays or not invite avatars and timeline media
• So that I can protect myself from bad content

The settings will appear in a new dedicated section of Advanced settings screen: figma

Acceptance criteria

• The new settings are added to Advanced settings screen
• The app follows those settings

Dependencies

• None

Out of scope

• Server configuration. [Story] Public content display policy #2787 will have an impact on the default values of those settings but it will happen on a second time.

We decided that we can release it in the advanced settings before BE, but if the setting has never been touched by the user, when the BE value will come it will take precedence over the local one, otherwise the local one will always take precedence

I tested EXA and EXI. It works great. Thanks @ganfra and @Velin92 .
@Half-Shot , once the proposed design has landed on EW, we can close this story.
