There was the following bug:
- Bob has two devices, the second is offline.
- Alice creates a verified group and sends a QR invitation to Bob.
- Bob joins the group.
- Bob's second devices goes online, but sees a contact request instead of the verified group.
- The "member added" message is not a system message but a plain text message.
- Sending a message fails as the key is missing -- message info says "proper enc-key for <Alice>
missing, cannot encrypt".
- Alice has two devices, the second is offline.
- Alice creates a verified group and sends a QR invitation to Bob.
- Bob joins the group and sends a message there. Alice sees it.
- Alice's second devices goes online, but doesn't see Bob in the group.
This allows to distinguish exceptions,
such as database errors, from invalid user input.
For example, if the From: field of the message
does not look like an email address, the mail
should be ignored. But if there is a database
failure while writing a new contact for the address,
this error should be bubbled up.
It's a w/a for "Space added before long group names after MIME serialization/deserialization"
issue. DC itself never creates group names with leading/trailing whitespace, so it can be safely
removed. On the sender side there's no trim() because group names anyway go through
improve_single_line_input(). And I believe we should send the exact name we have in our db. Also
there's no check for leading/trailing whitespace because there may be existing user databases with
group names having such whitespaces.
That's a bug which @Simon-Laux and probably also @hpk42 had, where one malformed incoming (Spam-) mail blocked the receiving of all emails coming after it.
The problem was that from_field_to_contact_id() returned ContactId::UNDEFINED, and then lookup_by_contact() returned Err.
* allow deleting referenced contacts in UI
we are quite often getting requests of users
who want to get rid of some contact in the "new chat" list.
there is already a "delete" option,
but it does not work for referenced contacts -
however, it is not obvious for users that a contact is in use,
esp. of some mailing list or larger chat, old contacts, whatever.
this pr revives an old idea [^1] of "soft deleting" referenced contacts -
this way, the user can remove the annoying entry
without the need to understand complicated things
and finally saying that deletion is impossible :)
once the contact is reused, it will reappear,
however, this is already explained in the confirmation dialog of the UIs.
technically, this pr was simpler as expected as we already have
a Origin::Hidden, that is just reused here.

* update rust doccomment
* update changelog
* avoid races on contact deletion
chats may be created between checking for "no chats" and contact deletion.
this is prevented by putting the statement into an EXCLUSIVE transaction.
* fix failing python test
* Add DC_EVENT_INCOMING_MSG event
* Fix lots of compile errors
* Docs
* Changelog
* Fix python tests
Adding DC_EVENT_INCOMING_MSG_BUNCH made the python tests fail because they use `get_matching("DC_EVENT_INCOMING_MSG")`, which also matches DC_EVENT_INCOMING_MSG_BUNCH, so the tests got confused.
This fixes `get_matching()` to only match whole event names.
* Also fix test_ac_setup_message_twice()
The built regex was ^EVENT_NAME1|EVENT_NAME2$, which becomes parsed as
"^EVENT_NAME1" OR "EVENT_NAME2$". Introduce a group (parentheses) to fix
this.
* desktop will use DC_EVENT_INCOMING_MSG_BUNCH,
so I would not call it experimental anymore
* add generated node constants
* msg_ids in the event as Vec<u32>
number[] in js land
this is way more convinient than a json encoded string.
* Apply suggestions from code review

Python bindings expect all functions defined in deltachat.h
to be available, even if there is no high-level interface.
scripts/run-python-test.sh doesn't work without this.
Wheels are now published to PyPI, recommend it instead of devpi. We
build the wheels only for releases anyway.
Suggest using tox instead of listing all the pytest dependencies to
avoid keeping them up to date in the readme.
We no longer publish `docker/coredeps` images, they cannot be
pulled from a container registry anymore.
Troubleshooting section is outdated, because vsyscall emulation is
only needed for manylinux2010 images, not manylinux2014 or
musllinux_1_1 images.
Mention Podman as an alternative to Docker.
Link to https://py.delta.chat/ instead of only examples.
Remove note about wheels for Mac and Windows. Nobody requests them
anyway.
