Can you add a specific message to each SendMessageError error? I realize it wasn't there before, but it might be helpful here to have some additional context

native/chat/reaction-message-utils.js
118–122 ↗	(On Diff #45586)	Looks like this type is not correct, but was not correct in the past either, see here Wondering, if we should use `SendMessageError` type in `/lib/types/redux-types.js` to catch things like this? I am talking about this three specific actions: `SEND_MULTIMEDIA_MESSAGE_FAILED` `SEND_REACTION_MESSAGE_FAILED` `SEND_TEXT_MESSAGE_FAILED`

118–122 ↗	(On Diff #45586)	Wondering, if we should use `SendMessageError` type in `/lib/types/redux-types.js` to catch things like this? Good call... yeah, I think that would be best. In addition to the changes @angelika made here to `lib/types/redux-types.js`, I think we should update the place(s) where the error is thrown... looks to be in `lib/hooks/input-state-container-hooks.js`. Hopefully we can remove the `any`-cast there
