Follow-up to f27d54f. Non-critical errors shouldn't lead to missing messages. But in debug builds,
panic on such errors, otherwise we won't catch them w/o special tests.
Create unprotected group in test_create_protected_grp_multidev
The test is renamed accordingly.
SystemMessage::ChatE2ee is added in encrypted groups
regardless of whether they are protected or not.
Previously new encrypted unprotected groups
had no message saying that messages are end-to-end encrypted
at all.
This mechanism replaces `Chat-Verified` header.
New parameter `_verified=1` in `Autocrypt-Gossip`
header marks that the sender has the gossiped key
verified.
Using `_verified=1` instead of `_verified`
because it is less likely to cause troubles
with existing Autocrypt header parsers.
This is also how https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc2045
defines parameter syntax.
Any control information from the message
should only be downloaded when the message
is fully downloaded to avoid processing it twice.
Besides, "partial" messages may actually be full messages
with an error that are only processed as partial
to add a message bubble allowing to download the message later.
Old Delta Chat clients don't provide timestamps for added and removed members in messages, so at
least implicit member changes may be ignored as it's not clear if they are newer than explicit
member changes from modern clients. Lost messages aren't so frequent anyway, and overall
compatibility with old versions may be limited already.
Ignoring `receive_imf_inner()` errors, i.e. silently skipping messages on failures, leads to bugs
never fixed. As for temporary I/O errors, ignoring them leads to lost messages, in this case it's
better to bubble up the error and get the IMAP loop stuck. However if there's some logic error, it's
better to show it to the user so that it's more likely reported, and continue receiving messages. To
distinguish these cases, on error, try adding the message as partially downloaded with the error set
to `msgs.error`, this way the user also can retry downloading the message to finally see it if the
problem is fixed.
- sync declined calls from callee to caller, as usual in all larger
messengers
- introduce the call states "Missed call", "Declined call" and
"Cancelled all" ("Ended call" is gone)
- allow calling end_call()/accept_call() for already ended/accepted
calls, in practise, handling all cornercases is tricky in UI - and the
state needs anyways to be tracked.
- track and show the call duration
the duration calculation depends on local time, but it is displayed only
coarse and is not needed for any state. this can be improved as needed,
timestamps of the corresponding messages are probably better at some
point. or ending device sends its view of the time around. but for the
first throw, it seems good enough
if we finally want that set of states, it can be exposed to a json-info
in a subsequent call, so that the UI can render it more nicely. fallback
strings as follows will stay for now to make adaption in other UI easy,
and for debugging:

this PR uses the initial "call messages" (that has a separate viewtype
since #7174) to show all call status.
this is what most other messengers are doing as well. additional "info
messages" after a call are no longer needed.
on the wire, as we cannot pickpack on visible info messages, we use
hidden messages, similar to eg. webxdc status updates.
in future PR, it is planned to allow getting call state as a json, so
that UI can render nicely. it is then decided if we want to translate
the strings in the core.

a dedicated viewtype allows the UI to show a more advanced UI, but even
when using the defaults,
it has the advantage that incoming/outgoing and the date are directly
visible.

Also verify not yet verified contacts w/o setting a verifier for them (in the db it's stored as
`verifier_id=id` though) because we don't know who verified them for another device.
We haven't dropped verified groups yet, so we need to do smth with messages that can't be verified
yet which often occurs because of messages reordering, particularly in large groups. Apart from the
reported case #7059, i had other direct reports that sometimes messages can't be verified for
various reasons, but when the reason is already fixed, it should be possible to re-download failed
messages and see them.
Also remove the code replacing the message text with a verification error from
`apply_group_changes()` as `add_parts()` already does this.
Encrypted message may create unencrypted groups
if the message does not have a Chat-Group-ID.
This can happen if v1 client sends an encrypted
message to opportunistically encrypted ad hoc group.
In this case `from_id` corresponds to the key-contact,
but we should add address-contact of the sender
to the member list.
We don't want to prefer returning verified contacts because e.g. if a bot was reinstalled and its
key changed, it may not be verified, and we don't want to bring the user to the old chat if they
click on the bot email address. But trying to return accepted contacts increases security and
doesn't break the described scenario.
- It's obvious that addresses are needed to add contacts, so `_by_address_list` looks excessive.
- The function only looks up `SELF` by address.
- The name was confusing because there's also `lookup_key_contacts_by_address_list()` that actually
looks up key contacts by addresses (not only `SELF`).
This PR adds a test to reproduce a bug raised by @adbenitez that peer
channels break when the resend feature is used.

This should fix https://github.com/chatmail/core/issues/7030; @r10s if
you could test whether it fixes your problem
The crash happened if you received a message that has the from contact
also in the "To: " and "Chat-Group-Member-Fpr: " headers. Not sure how
it happened that such a message was created.
Add `logged_debug_assert` macro logging a warning if a condition is not satisfied, before invoking
`debug_assert!`, and use this macro where `Context` is accessible (i.e. don't change function
signatures for now).
Follow-up to 0359481ba4.
We have some debug assertions already, but we also want the corresponding errors in the release
configuration so that it's not less reliable than non-optimized one. This doesn't change any
function signatures, only debug assertions in functions returning `Result` are replaced.

Part of #6884.
The channel owner will not be notified in any way that you left, they
will only see that there is one member less.
For the translated stock strings, this is what we agreed on in the
group:
- Add a new "Leave Channel" stock string (will need to be done in UIs)
- Reword the existing "Are you sure you want to leave this group?"
string to "Are you sure you want to leave?" (the options are "Cancel"
and "Leave Group" / "Leave Channel", so it's clear what you are leaving)
(will need to be done in the deltachat-android repo, other UIs will pick
it up automatically)
- Reword the existing "You left the group." string to "You left". (done
here, I will adapt the strings in deltachat-android, too)
I adapted DC Android by pushing

to https://github.com/deltachat/deltachat-android/pull/3783.

Non-members can't modify the member list (incl. adding themselves), modify an ephemeral timer, so
they shouldn't be able to change the group name or avatar, just for consistency. Even if messages
are reordered and a group name change from a new member arrives before its addition, the new group
name will be applied on a receipt of the next message following the addition message because
Chat-Group-Name-Timestamp increases. While Delta Chat groups aimed for chatting with trusted
contacts, accepting group changes from everyone knowing Chat-Group-Id means that if any of the past
members have the key compromised, the group should be recreated which looks impractical.
Part of #6884
----
- [x] Add new chat type `InBroadcastChannel` and `OutBroadcastChannel`
for incoming / outgoing channels, where the former is similar to a
`Mailinglist` and the latter is similar to a `Broadcast` (which is
removed)
- Consideration for naming: `InChannel`/`OutChannel` (without
"broadcast") would be shorter, but less greppable because we already
have a lot of occurences of `channel` in the code. Consistently calling
them `BcChannel`/`bc_channel` in the code would be both short and
greppable, but a bit arcane when reading it at first. Opinions are
welcome; if I hear none, I'll keep with `BroadcastChannel`.
- [x] api: Add create_broadcast_channel(), deprecate
create_broadcast_list() (or `create_channel()` / `create_bc_channel()`
if we decide to switch)
- Adjust code comments to match the new behavior.
- [x] Ask Desktop developers what they use `is_broadcast` field for, and
whether it should be true for both outgoing & incoming channels (or look
it up myself)
- I added `is_out_broadcast_channel`, and deprecated `is_broadcast`, for
now
- [x] When the user changes the broadcast channel name, immediately show
this change on receiving devices
- [x] Allow to change brodacast channel avatar, and immediately apply it
on the receiving device
- [x] Make it possible to block InBroadcastChannel
- [x] Make it possible to set the avatar of an OutgoingChannel, and
apply it on the receiving side
- [x] DECIDE whether we still want to use the broadcast icon as the
default icon or whether we want to use the letter-in-a-circle
- We decided to use the letter-in-a-circle for now, because it's easier
to implement, and I need to stay in the time plan
- [x] chat.rs: Return an error if the user tries to modify a
`InBroadcastChannel`
- [x] Add automated regression tests
- [x] Grep for `broadcast` and see whether there is any other work I
need to do
- [x] Bug: Don't show `~` in front of the sender's same in broadcast
lists
----
Note that I removed the following guard:
```rust
if !new_chat_contacts.contains(&ContactId::SELF) {
warn!(
context,
"Received group avatar update for group chat {} we are not a member of.", chat.id
);
} else if !new_chat_contacts.contains(&from_id) {
warn!(
context,
"Contact {from_id} attempts to modify group chat {} avatar without being a member.",
chat.id,
);
} else [...]
```
i.e. with this change, non-members will be able to modify the avatar.
Things were slightly easier this way, and I think that this is in line
with non-members being able to modify the group name and memberlist
(they need to know the Group-Chat-Id, anyway), but I can also change it
back.
This change introduces a new type of contacts
identified by their public key fingerprint
rather than an e-mail address.
Encrypted chats now stay encrypted
and unencrypted chats stay unencrypted.
For example, 1:1 chats with key-contacts
are encrypted and 1:1 chats with address-contacts
are unencrypted.
Groups that have a group ID are encrypted
and can only contain key-contacts
while groups that don't have a group ID ("adhoc groups")
are unencrypted and can only contain address-contacts.
JSON-RPC API `reset_contact_encryption` is removed.
Python API `Contact.reset_encryption` is removed.
"Group tracking plugin" in legacy Python API was removed because it
relied on parsing email addresses from system messages with regexps.
