QCustomTypingIndicator
The animated "… is typing" dots.
Three dots that bounce/fade in sequence, painted with QPainter (no assets),
optionally inside a chat-bubble-style pill. Call start()/stop() (or set the
running property) to animate; colour and dot size are qproperties.
Designer-droppable so it drops straight into a thread.
