telepathyClient: Pin the scrollbar to the bottom

When new messages come in we want to scroll down so that the user
sees the incoming messages. The current implementation does not work
because it relies on a synchronous allocation hack which does not work
for unmapped notifications.

Fix that by connecting to adjustment::changed and scroll whenever the
adjustment changes which equals "new messages", "new timestamp" or
"presense change", but don't interference with the user's scroll actions
i.e when the user scrolls back to read something don't scroll to the bottom.
