feat: Don't mark messages as seen on IMAP if bcc_self=0 or bot=1

bcc_self=0 means that the user disabled it or it's a chatmail setup with the only device and w/o
backups. If a backup is made someday, old messages not marked as IMAP-seen aren't a problem and new
ones are marked as IMAP-seen.

For bots, particularly multi-device ones (which are a rare case), probably no sane logic can be
built on the "seen" message status. Moreover, if the user has additionally a bot that reads incoming
messages, it doesn't mean that the user doesn't want to read them too.
