Radosław Gierwiało 4e9557bd29 feat(chat): add country flags and competitor numbers with normalized data architecture
Implemented display of country flags and competitor numbers in event chat messages:
- Country flags displayed as emoji (🇸🇪, 🇵🇱, etc.) with proper emoji font support
- Competitor numbers shown in #123 format next to usernames
- Normalized data architecture with user and participant caches on frontend
- User data (username, avatar, country) and participant data (competitorNumber) cached separately
- Messages store only core data (id, content, userId, createdAt)
- Prevents data inconsistency when users update profile information
- Fixed duplicate message keys React warning with deduplication logic
- Backend sends nested user/participant objects for cache population
- Auto-updates across all messages when user changes avatar or country

Backend changes:
- Socket.IO event_message and message_history include nested user/participant data
- API /events/:slug/messages endpoint restructured with same nested format
- Batch lookup of competitor numbers for efficiency

Frontend changes:
- useEventChat hook maintains userCache and participantCache
- ChatMessage component accepts separate user/participant props
- ChatMessageList performs cache lookups during render
- Emoji font family support for cross-platform flag rendering

React + Vite

This template provides a minimal setup to get React working in Vite with HMR and some ESLint rules.

Currently, two official plugins are available:

React Compiler

The React Compiler is not enabled on this template because of its impact on dev & build performances. To add it, see this documentation.

Expanding the ESLint configuration

If you are developing a production application, we recommend using TypeScript with type-aware lint rules enabled. Check out the TS template for information on how to integrate TypeScript and typescript-eslint in your project.
