Remove "X kicked X" terminology when removing people from a room

See original GitHub issue

This issue is: Ready to Build

What would you like to do?

To remove the wording “X kicked X” when someone is removed from a room and replace with “X removed X”

Why would you like to do it?

Because it is more acceptable terminology

EDIT bmarty Ok, confirmed internally:

replace all instance of “kick” and their variations to “remove” and their variations in the English wording. Translation will updated later following the regular Weblate process. No need to create new strings.
add the slash command /remove but keep the existing /kick for now. They will have the same effect.

I like this change and never understood why the brutal “kick” word was chosen back in the IRC days. Looking forward for replacing “ban” with “block”! 🤗
