fix: Prune tombstone when a message isn't expected to appear on IMAP anymore (#7115)

This allows to receive deleted messages again if they're re-sent:
- After a manual deletion,
- If both DeleteServerAfter and DeleteDeviceAfter are set,

w/o waiting for 2 days when stale tombstones are GC-ed. This is particularly useful for webxdc. If
only DeleteDeviceAfter is set though, this changes nothing and maybe a separate fix is needed.

This may also greately reduce the db size for some bots which receive and immediately delete many
messages.

Also insert a tombstone to the db if a deletion request (incl. sync messages) can't find
`rfc724_mid`. This may happen in case of message reordering and the deleted message mustn't appear
when it finally arrives.
