I assume that the problem was that sometimes, alice2 or fiona doesn't
accept alice's smeared timestamp, because `calc_sort_timestamp()`
doesn't allow the timestamp of a received message to be in the future. I
tried this patch:
```diff

++ smeared_time(context) + MAX_SECONDS_TO_LEND_FROM_FUTURE,
++ );
let last_msg_time: Option<i64> = if always_sort_to_bottom {
// get newest message for this chat
```
...maybe this patch makes sense anyways, but you still get the problem
that the message sent by alice2 (i.e. the add-fiona message) will have
an earlier timestamp than the message sent by alice, because alice
already sent more messages, and therefore has more timesmearing-seconds.
It's unsure it makes sense to modify calc_sort_timestamp() this way because if some chat member has the clock in the future (even unintentionally), their fresh messages will be sorted to the bottom relatively to others' fresh messages. Maybe it's even better to limit the message timestamp ("Date") by the current system time there.
To really fix the problem, we could send a serial number together with the timestamp, that distinguishes two messages sent in the same second. But since we haven't gotten complaints about message ordering since some time, let's just leave things as they are.
Since all this timesmearing is a bit best-effort right now, I decided to
instead just make the test more relaxed.
Rpc.start() now calls get_system_info() after launching the server
to verify it started successfully. If the server exits early (e.g.
due to an invalid accounts directory), the core error message from
stderr is captured and included in the raised JsonRpcError.
The reader_loop now unblocks pending RPC requests when the server
closes stdout, so callers never hang on a dead server.
Export JsonRpcError from the deltachat_rpc_client package.
Add test_early_failure verifying that Rpc.start() raises with
the actual core error message for invalid accounts directories.
Timestamp renewal was introduced in 1dbf924c6a "feat:
chat::resend_msgs: Guarantee strictly increasing time in the Date header" so that re-sent messages
can be deduplicated on the reciver side, but the deduplication logic doesn't depend on "Date"
anymore.
This code does not expect the variable to be unset,
so use indexing to fail with KeyError instead.
Otherwise getenv() returns None which is then converted to "none" string by formatting
and the test only fails because of connection attempts to "none" domain.
Iroh-Gossip-Topic is sent in a post-message. Post-message goes to trash,
so topic should be associated with the existing pre-message that is
updated rather than with the post-message.
Fix https://github.com/chatmail/core/issues/7835.
The problem was most probably:
- `ac1_clone` receives the sync message, sends `TRANSPORTS_MODIFIED`
event, and launches a task that will restart IO
- After IO was stopped, but before it is started again,
`ac1_clone.add_transport_from_qr(qr)` is called
- this check fails:
```rust
ensure!(
!self.scheduler.is_running().await,
"cannot configure, already running"
);
```
Existing test relies on folder scanning.
We are going to remove the option to not show emails
(<https://github.com/chatmail/core/issues/7631>)
so the test will be removed eventually anyway.
This commit also makes testing hooks easier, as it allows to process
events and run hooks on them, until a certain event occurs.

This fixes the bug when a new transport doesn't become primary on the 2nd device because INBOX from
the new transport isn't fully fetched. Now the `Transports` sync message is received from the old
transport, but as it has updated "From", it updates the primary transport correspondingly. NB: I/O
for the new primary transport isn't immediately started however, this needs a separate fix.
This is to fix tests failing with `OSError: [Errno 9] Bad file descriptor`. Maybe stdout closes
earlier than stderr, before the test finishes, not sure. For reference, the previous commit removing
print()s is 800edc6fce.
