This makes it so that files will be deduplicated when using the JsonRPC
API.
@nicodh and @WofWca you know the Desktop code and how it is using the
API, so, you can probably tell me whether this is a good way of changing
the JsonRPC code - feel free to push changes directly to this PR here!
This PR here changes the existing functions instead of creating new
ones; we can alternatively create new ones if it allows for a smoother
transition.
This brings a few changes:
- If you pass a file that is already in the blobdir, it will be renamed
to `<hash>.<extension>` immediately (previously, the filename on the
disk stayed the same)
- If you pass a file that's not in the blobdir yet, it will be copied to
the blobdir immediately (previously, it was copied to the blobdir later,
when sending)
- If you create a file and then pass it to `create_message()`, it's
better to directly create it in the blobdir, since it doesn't need to be
copied.
- You must not write to the files after they were passed to core,
because otherwise, the hash will be wrong. So, if Desktop recodes videos
or so, then the video file mustn't just be overwritten. What you can do
instead is write the recoded video to a file with a random name in the
blobdir and then create a new message with the new attachment. If
needed, we can also create a JsonRPC for `set_file_and_deduplicate()`
that replaces the file on an existing message.
In order to test whether everything still works, the desktop issue has a
list of things to test:

Core issue: #6265

with this PR, when an `.xdc` with `request_integration = map` in the
manifest is added to the "Saved Messages" chat, it is used _locally_ as
an replacement for the shipped maps.xdc (other devices will see the
`.xdc` but not use it)
this allows easy development and adapting the map to use services that
work better in some area.
there are lots of known discussions and ideas about adding more barriers
of safety. however, after internal discussions, we decided to move
forward and also to allow internet, if requested by an integration (as
discussed at
https://github.com/deltachat/deltachat-core-rust/pull/3516).
the gist is to ease development and to make users who want to adapt,
actionable _now_, without making things too hard and adding too high
barriers or stressing our own resources/power too much.
note, that things are still experimental and will be the next time -
without the corresponding switch being enabled, nothing will work at
all, so we can be quite relaxed here :)
for android/ios, things will work directly. for desktop, allow_internet
needs to be accepted unconditionally from core. for the future, we might
add a question before using an integration and/or add signing. or sth.
completely different - but for now, the thing is to get started.
nb: "integration" field in the webxdc-info is experimental as well and
should not be used in UIs at all currently, it may vanish again and is
there mainly for simplicity of the code; therefore, no need to document
that.
successor of https://github.com/deltachat/deltachat-core-rust/pull/5461
this is how it looks like currently - again, please note that all that
is an experiment!

... when going out of experimental, there are loots of ideas, eg.
changing "Start" to "integrate"
following `RELEASE.md`, after merging, the following is needed:
6. Tag the release: `git tag --annotate v1.151.2`.
7. Push the release tag: `git push origin v1.151.2`.
8. Create a GitHub release: `gh release create v1.151.2 --notes ''`.
this PR adds the `href` from `update.href` to the IncomingWebxdcNotify
event (DC_EVENT_INCOMING_WEBXDC_NOTIFY in cffi)
purpose is to add a "Start" button to the notifications that allow
starting the app immediately with the given href
- **feat: add `AccountsChanged` and `AccountsItemChanged` events**
- **emit event and add tests**
closes#6106
TODO:
- [x] test receiving synced config from second device
- [x] bug: investigate how to delay the configuration event until it is
actually configured - because desktop gets the event but still shows
account as if it was unconfigured, maybe event is emitted before the
value is written to the database?
- [x] update node bindings constants
