Summary

Ref T11809. We show a red dot next to a username to indicate that the user is away (on vacation, in a meeting, etc).

It's not very obvious what this means unless you know that's what it is: when you click the username or view a hovercard, there's no visual hint about what the red dot means. It does say "Away", but there is a lot of information and it doesn't visually connect the two.

Connect the two visually by putting a red dot next to the "Away" bit, too.

Test Plan

Here's my version of it, this feels OK to me but could maybe be more designed:

I'm not entirely sure -- the viewer won't necessarily be able to see the event, and maybe it's not so great if most events are private. They probably aren't but maybe they are?

We also don't currently store which event the user is attending in the cache so it would be a bit more work. And, at least on the profile, whatever information the user can see should be available in the little widget (maybe we could highlight the current event there instead / in addition? Not sure how often it'll be below the fold now).

Let's see how this feels and we can add the event if it seems useful after the other changes are live for a little bit.
