reset the highlighted message after 3 sec

Before this commit, when a users clicks on a quoted message, the UI
takes it to that message. If the user clicks again on the quoted
message, the green highlight of the quoted message is not shown again.
This was like this, because the highlight is based on a state change,
and clicking on the same highlighted message, does not update the state
as the clicked quoted message is still the same.

The fix is to reset the highlighted message on the state object after
the animation is done
