Details

Steps to reproduce:

This has only been occurring since upgrading to 115 and did not resolve with 115.1.0. I use XMPP to communicate with work colleagues and often have 6 to 10 one-on-one conversations going simultaneously.
I'm not 100% of the trigger, but I believe that closing one of the conversations seems to cause the problem. will cause the text input box for one of the remaining conversations to shrink down to 1 line.
If I try to make the input box taller, it will revert back to one line if I switch to a different conversation and back.
I'll have to pay closer attention, but I think it's consistently been the second conversation in the alphabetized list that gets affected.

Actual results:

After closing one of the conversations, the text input box for one of the remaining conversations shrinks to 1 line.
If you enlarge the text input box, it will not persist at the new height. Switching to a different conversation and then back will cause the input box to go back to 1 line in height.
I'll have to pay closer attention, but I'm pretty sure it seems to affect the second conversation in the alphabetized conversation list.

Expected results:

The text input box should stay the same size without changing unless changed by the user.

Can confirm. This is likely due to a similar reason that we had to fix the other splitters in the chat layout, we just forgot this one. It also probably needs to set the sizeings whenever a conversation is switched.
