Description

Right now we can't use the @ mention in a textarea.

The textarea component should have the ability to let us @ mention someone, through the component API.

We should be able to indicate a new props accept-mention or something. Once it's set to true, we should be able to call the backend when we @ and load the list of proper contacts.

Then once we select the contact, we should emit something to let the UI know that we've selected someone.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Implement a new prop `accept mention` on the textarea component, set up an API endpoint to fetch contacts when @ is typed, and emit an event upon selection.
