b1da53a56b api!: remove verification methods from the FFI and JSON-RPC APIs
Core no longer tracks verification, so the API has nothing left
to report and UIs should drop their checkmark and "Introduced by" code.

BREAKING CHANGE: dc_contact_is_verified() and dc_contact_get_verifier_id() are removed.

BREAKING CHANGE: the JSON-RPC Contact object loses the `isVerified` and `verifierId` fields. A bot reading `snapshot.is_verified` now gets an `AttributeError` at runtime.

BREAKING CHANGE: the Python bindings lose `Contact.is_verified()` and `Contact.get_verifier()`.

BREAKING CHANGE: DC_STR_CONTACT_VERIFIED (35) is removed, so UIs should stop registering a translation for it. A stock id core does not know is logged and otherwise ignored, so an un-updated client keeps working.

d4115e720d docs: add hint about how to reset an invitation (#8160)
this PR adds a hint about how to reset a QR code. 

the API is as-is, just now, a refactoring here is also unwanted. the
jsonrpc documentation needs to improved in general, this is known, and
also not done by this PR

a8e1110bcd fix: always emit AccountsBackgroundFetchDone
A second background_fetch() while one is already running returned
without emitting the event, and the FFI returned 1 for it,
so a UI waiting for an event hangs dc_get_next_event().
Emit the event in any case, so waiting for it is safe.

dced877c90 feat: perform background fetch from all transports
With I/O stopped, `background_fetch()` connected only to the transport of `configured_addr`
and we now instead fan out to all transports in a controlled loop.
If a first transport finished fetching new messages
cancel all other attempts and return.

This is meant to address the problem that amzd described
where a profile with one functioning and one hanging transport,
shows the first notification, then hangs 15 seconds waiting for the hanging transport.
meanwhile a second NSE arrives and dies, and the second message is not notified
or only generically.

Also drop the quota check from this background fetch path:
its result is in-memory only, discarded when the iOS notification service exits,
and the regular scheduler fetching refreshes it every 60s anyway.
Moreover, quota errors/running full is pretty rare
since relays generally automatically stay under quota these days.
It's another round trip for each transport of each profile and simply not necessary.

Also adds previously missing online tests.

70a01a6813 feat!: remove a relay immediately instead of unpublishing it
Removing a relay now takes effect immediately:

- the profile stops fetching and advertising it,

- secondary devices immediately apply the removal through the transport sync,

Upgrading removes unpublished relays and triggers keyupdates.

BREAKING CHANGE: set_transport_unpublished() is removed: UIs call delete_transport() when the user removes a relay.

BREAKING CHANGE: list_transports_ex() and the TransportListEntry type are removed: use list_transports().

BREAKING CHANGE: delete_transport() no longer refuses to remove the primary transport: it refuses only to remove the last one and re-elects the sending transport as needed.

BREAKING CHANGE: TransportsModified is now also emitted on the device modifying the transports, not only on devices applying the synced change.

Deprecated: DC_STR_PHASING_OUT

7421e67ab6 feat: do not create device messages for IMAP authentication errors
Authentication failures may happen because of internal server errors.
Device message saying "Please check if the email address and the password are correct"
was written for classic email setups when the user knows the password.
For users of chatmail relays this message is not actionable,
but still appears when relay fails to check the password.

412ed15b8b deprecate dc_chat_get_info_json() (#8580)
it is outdated and incomplete, and always was experimental.

it is not in use in any UI but to get the name of the chat in Ubuntu
Touch, i created an issue for that at
https://codeberg.org/lk108/deltatouch/issues/305

moreover it is used for python bindings as get_summary(), not sure how
much that is in use,
we can leave the API for that for now, but we should not encourage
further usage of the API

805e555a99 fix: multi relay connectivity (#8550)
this PR, created together with @adbenitez, improves the connectivity
state passed to UI, which has changed a lot since multi relay:

- change the algorithm for `get_connectivity()`: this is roughly the
"best" connectivity of all relays now, so if one is connected, we're
already fine. this was discussed widely one to one, and that part
already closes #8554

- the PR adds a test for that, previously, that was untested

- additionally, do not regard unpublished relays in
`get_connectivity()`: e.g. unpublished relays are no longer given to
peers - so if only that is connected, the overall state should not be
"connected". therefore, we just ignore unpublished relays there

- in `get_connectivity_html()`, we continue showing unpublished relays,
however, we tune them down visually and flag them as such

- for the docs, remove the "range for some future use" wording. it was
never used like that, and that future will probably not arrive :)

961cacd795 fix: Correctly delete unneeded messages on the server; Remove "Delete Messages from Server" (delete_server_after) config option (#8240)
Fix https://github.com/chatmail/core/issues/8195
Supersedes https://github.com/chatmail/core/pull/8217

The most interesting change is in `delete_expired_imap_messages()`
because there, messages are marked for deletion on single-device
chatmail profiles.

The logic in `delete_expired_imap_messages()` was wrong before, and
pre-messages were not deleted at all. This is fixed by also querying
`pre_rfc724_mid` in addition to `rfc724_mid` from the `msgs` table.
In order not to make the SQL statement too complex, I split it into two.

WRT tests:
- `test_immediate_autodelete()` tests the auto-deletion;
`test_imap_autodelete_fully_downloaded_msg()` tests that even for a
message that is split into pre- and post-message, both messages are
deleted.
- A lot of tests test that if bcc_self is on, messages are not
auto-deleted. E.g. `test_one_account_send_bcc_setting()` and
`test_markseen_message_and_mdn()` relies on the fact that messages stay
on the server when bcc_self is on.
- Unfortunately, it is not possible to test that messages are only
deleted for chatmail servers, because we don't have any tests that use a
non-chatmail server.

25cd7b65fd api!: Remove unused info_only option when loading a chatlist (#8171)
Remove unused info_only option from `get_chat_msgs_ex()`.

This option was meant to show an "audit log" of a group, i.e. only the
info messages. This feature was removed again from Desktop, but the
option still lingered around in Core.

This also adds a doc comment to the JsonRPC functions, because I
wanted to note somewhere that the parameter is deprecated, and I needed
some place to put this note.

810dab12dc api: Add list_transports_ex() and set_transport_unpublished() functions
Closes https://github.com/chatmail/core/issues/7980.

Unpublished transports are not advertised to contacts, and self-sent messages are not sent there, so that we don't cause extra messages to the corresponding inbox, but can still receive messages from contacts who don't know the new relay addresses yet.

- This adds `list_transports_ex()` and `set_transport_unpublished()` JsonRPC functions
- By default, transports are published, but when updating, all existing transports except for the primary one become unpublished in order not to break existing users that followed https://delta.chat/legacy-move
- It is not possible to unpublish the primary transport, and setting a transport as primary automatically sets it to published

An alternative would be to change the existing list_transports API rather than adding a new one list_transports_ex. But to be honest, I don't mind the _ex prefix that much, and I am wary about compatibility issues. But maybe it would be fine; see b08ba4bb8 for how this would look.

e690186236 feat: mark messages as "fresh"
this adds an api to make the newest incoming message of a chat as "fresh",
so that UI can offer a "mark chat unread" option as usual for messengers
(eg. swipe right on iOS toggels between "read" and "unread").

"mark unread" is one of the most requested missing features,
used by many ppl to organize their every day messenger usage -
tho "pinning" and "saved messages" are similar,
it seems to be missed often.

we follow a very simple approach here
and just reset the state to `MessageState::InFresh`.
this does not introduce new states or flows.

therefore, chats without any incoming message cannot be marked as fresh.
in practise, this is probably not really an issue,
as the "mark fresh" is usually used to undo a "mark noticed" operation -
and then you have incoming message.
also, most status messages as "all messages are e2ee" count as incoming.

to avoid double sending of MDN,
we remove `Param::WantsMdn` once the MDN is scheduled.
in case MDN are used for syncing, MDN is still sent as before.

many other messenger show a "badge without number",
if we want that as well,
we can always track the "manually set as fresh" state in a parameter.
but for now, it is fine without and showing a "1", which alsso makes sense as badges may be summed up.

there is an iOS pr that uses this new feature,
jsonrpc is left out until api is settled.

also out of scope is synchronisation -
main reason is that "mark noticed" is not synced as well, so we avoid an imbalance here.
both, "mark noticed" as well as "mark fresh" should be synced however,
as soon as this feature is merged.

Implementation notes:

- Descriptions are only sent with member additions, when the description
is changed, and when promoting a previously-unpromoted group, in order
not to waste bandwith.
- Descriptions are not loaded everytime a chat object is loaded, because
they are only needed for the profile. Instead, they are in their own
table, and can be loaded with their own JsonRPC call.
