When using CJK input methods (Chinese, Japanese, Korean), pressing Enter to confirm an IME candidate incorrectly submits the chat message. This adds checks for `event.isComposing` and `event.keyCode === 229` to ignore Enter key events during IME composition.

Description
When using an Input Method Editor (IME) — such as Chinese Pinyin, Japanese, or Korean — pressing Enter to confirm a candidate character incorrectly submits the chat message instead of completing the IME composition.
This adds checks for

During IME composition, the browser fires
