Enable moderation requests

When moderation requests are enabled, users can report problematic messages. This sends a message to a private channel, where moderators can review the report. To make it easy to see all reports about someone’s behavior and discuss them, there will be a dedicated topic for each user whose messages are reported.

If no channel for moderation requests is configured, users won’t see the option to report a message.
