[$250] MEDIUM: Allow arbitrary users to be added/removed to/from workspace chat via @mention or members list

[waterim]

Problem:

Right now there are no possibilities to add anyone to the automatically created workspace chats, but it should be possible to add by "mention"; it's similarly not possible to remove someone who has been thus added.

Solution:

As discussed here, we would like to add this possibility to:

1. Allow anyone to be added to the workspace chat via @mention
2. Allow anyone to be added to the workspace chat via the Invite button of the members page
3. Allow anybody who wasn't auto-added (ie, admins or the employee) to be removed via the members page

IMPORTANT details for workspace chats:
