[Merge] lp:~pat-mcgowan/messaging-app/fix-1278790 into lp:messaging-app

[Pat McGowan]

Pat McGowan has proposed merging lp:~pat-mcgowan/messaging-app/fix-1278790 into lp:messaging-app.

Requested reviews:
  Ubuntu Phablet Team (phablet-team)

For more details, see:

This adds support for showing the current character count and number of messages to be sent via SMS. It includes a new label on top of the text area showing number of characters / 160 (number of messages). It is shown once the message is over 1 line in length, per other systems.
A new settings option is added to enable the feature which is off by default.
Emojis are counted as two characters. I did not test with multibyte character sets but expect that QML TextArea does the correct thing.
