Fixes element-hq/element-web#26254
(hopefully)
Reduce the number of cases where we drop events that we are trying to add to a thread.
I have lots of refactorings I would like to do to addEvent but this change isolates the functional change that may address the referenced bug.
I will be holding off on merging this until after the release candidate on 17th October 2023, so that we can try it out for a couple of weeks and evaluate whether it causes more stuck notifications.
This change is marked as an internal change (Task), so will not be included in the changelog.
