CometChatMessageList class
CometChatMessageList is a component that lists all messages with the help of appropriate message bubbles
messages are fetched using MessagesBuilderProtocol and MessagesRequestBuilder
fetched messages are listed down in way such that the most recent message will appear at the bottom of the list
and the user would have to scroll up to see the previous messages sent or received
and as user scrolls up, messages will be fetched again using MessagesBuilderProtocol and MessagesRequestBuilder if available
when a new message is sent it will automatically scroll to the bottom of the list if the user has scrolled to the top
and when a new message is received then a sticky UI element displaying newMessageIndicatorText will show up at the top of the screen if the user has scrolled to the top
  CometChatMessageList(
   user: User(uid: 'uid', name: 'name'),
   group: Group(guid: 'guid', name: 'name', type: 'public'),
   messageListStyle: MessageListStyle(),
