Opening the same account (context) from multiple processes is dangerous, can result in duplicate
downloads of the same message etc. Same for account manager, attempts to modify the same
accounts.toml even if done atomically with may result in corrupted files as atomic replacement
procedure does not expect that multiple processes may write to the same temporary file.
accounts.toml cannot be used as a lockfile because it is replaced during atomic update. Therefore, a
new file next to accounts.toml is needed to prevent starting second account manager in the same
directory.
But iOS needs to be able to open accounts from multiple processes at the same time. This is required
as the "share-to-DC extension" is a separate process by iOS design -- this process may or may not be
started while the main app is running. Accounts are not altered however by this extension, so let's
add to the `Accounts::new()` constructor an `rdwr` parameter which allows to read the accounts
config w/o locking the lockfile.
Message.set_text() and Message.get_text() are modified accordingly
to accept String and return String.
Messages which previously contained None text
are now represented as messages with empty text.
Use Message.set_text("".to_string())
instead of Message.set_text(None).
When running `cargo test` in the deltachat-jsonrpc folder,
a new file `openrpc/openrpc.json` will be created with an
[OpenRPC](https://spec.open-rpc.org/) definition.
It can be copy-pasted into the
[OpenRPC playground](https://playground.open-rpc.org/)
and used to generate clients in other languages.
convert `JSONRPCReactions.reactions` to a `Vec<JSONRPCReaction>` with unique reactions and their count, sorted in descending order.

* jsonrpc: `MessageSearchResult`, always include `chat_name`(not an option anymore), also add `author_id` and `chat_type`
* replace .ok_or_else with anyhow context
* fix: jsonrpc: typescript client: fix types of events in event emitter
* add ts ignore to remove ts error (when building in ts5)
doing the types right via casting is to complicated IMO and has no real benefit here.
Why? because desktop currently fetches the chatlist multiple times, even though it just needs the
chatlistitem for one chat.
Note: @r10s was worried before that exposing the method to get a single updated chatlistitem could
lead to race conditions where the chatlist item is newer than the chatlist order. But I don't think
this will change anything for desktop besides making it a little faster (because currently desktop
fetches the whole chatlist instead of just the entry it needs when an entry updates).
This way is more compatible to JSON-RPC libraries
that do not support receiving notifications from the server
and allows describing event types in the OpenRPC specification.
Event thread converting events to notifications in the FFI
is removed, so it is now possible to construct a dc_jsonrpc_instance_t
while still retrieving events via dc_event_emitter_t.
