fix: do not use square brackets error for unknown sender

If the sender of the message in protected group chat
is not a member of the chat, mark the sender name with `~`
as we do it in non-protected chats and set the error
instead of replacing the whole message with
"Unknown sender for this chat. See 'info' for more details."

To send a message to a protected group this way
the sender needs to know the group ID
and sign the message with the current verified key.
Usually this is just a late message
delivered shortly after the user has left
the group or was removed from it.

Replacing the message with a single error text part
as done before this change makes it impossible
to access anything other than text, such as attached images.
