This patch adds new C APIs
dc_get_next_msgs() and dc_wait_next_msgs(),
and their JSON-RPC counterparts
get_next_msgs() and wait_next_msgs().
New configuration "last_msg_id"
tracks the last message ID processed by the bot.
get_next_msgs() returns message IDs above
the "last_msg_id".
wait_next_msgs() waits for new message notification
and calls get_next_msgs().
wait_next_msgs() can be used to build
a separate message processing loop
independent of the event loop.
Async Python API get_fresh_messages_in_arrival_order()
is deprecated in favor of get_next_messages().
Introduced Python APIs:
- Account.wait_next_incoming_message()
- Message.is_from_self()
- Message.is_from_device()
Introduced Rust APIs:
- Context.set_config_u32()
- Context.get_config_u32()
that way, UI can just close the transfer dialog,
so that, at the end, both devices end in the chatlist.
we can also use this for troubleshooting -
if the device message is not present,
transfer did not succeed completely.
(a separate device message may be nice in that case -
but that is another effort,
same for making the device message reappear after deletion
or after some time)
This ensures that the BackupProvider will be stopped as soon as the
struct is dropped and the imex progress error event is emitted. This
makes it easier to use and also makes sure that the ffi call
dc_backup_provider_unref() does not lead to dangling resources.
This makes the BackupProvider automatically invoke pause-io while it
is needed.
It needed to make the guard independent from the Context lifetime to
make this work. Which is a bit sad.
This also removes BackupProvider::join in favour of implementing
Future directly. I wondered about implementing a FusedFutre to make
this a little safer but it would introduce a dependency on the futures
crate in deltachat-ffi which did not exist yet, so I didn't do that.
This adds functionality to send and receive a backup over the network
using a QR code.
The sender or provider prepares the backup, sets up a server that
waits for clients. It provides a ticket in the form of a QR code
which contains connection and authentication information.
The receiver uses the QR code to connect to the provider and fetches
backup, restoring it locally.
* move 'archived link' betweeen pinned and normal cahts or above normal chats
* add icon for 'archived chats' link
* let get_fresh_msg_cnt() work for DC_CHAT_ID_ARCHIVED_LINK
* move 'archived link' topmost
* use less noticeable archived-icon
* slightly smaller archived icon
* update CHANGELOG
* 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
