* test one-to-one chats on setup-contact/secure-join only one chat is created after scanning a QR code: - on setup-contact, one-to-ones are created on both sided - on secure-join, the joined group chat is created; one-to-ones are not created intitally, but should become visible on receiving messages * make sure, Alice creates the chat with Bob on setup-contact not totally sure if that change in #2508 was on-purpose, however, all yet released versions did create the one-to-one chat also on the Inviter's (Alice) side, so, let's stay with that, i do not see many reasons to change that. * unblock hidden (Blocked::Yes) one-to-one chats one-to-one chats may be hidden by secure-join, in case someone later writes a message to it (not unlikely), the chat needs to be shown. before, messages are just not shown, the corresponding chat did not appear. the 'Blocked' wording of a 'Chat' must not be mixed with the 'Blocking' of a contact. 'Chat-Blocking' is mostly a visibility thing, that may change as messages come in. this change should not affect _really_ blocked contacts - they are filtered out already before and their messages are usually not even downloaded. also, before allow_creation is checked, that may disallow chat creation for show_emails reasons. all in all, it just does the same as if the user has manualy deleted the chat before and it would be created. * simplify test
