Features: 1) Add detailed serializers for user messages, staff inbox, and thread consumers; 2) Update schema definitions to support new serializers with improved descriptions and summaries; 3) Introduce flexible event-based serializer for staff inbox actions.

Fixes: 1) Replace generic serializers with context-specific implementations in schema definitions.

Extra: 1) Minor code cleanup and reorganization for improved readability and maintainability; 2) Add comments for new serializers.
