Database queries for metadata only returned it for messages that were delivered already.
However, there are cases (e.g. a pending message needs to be delivered) where
the validator needs to retrieve the metadata from the database.
For these cases, a special database query has been introduced.
that handles message dependencies reported from clients.
The MessageValidatedEvent has been renamed into a MessageDeliveredEvent
since there were no real use cases for the former any more.
This adds a new table to the database to hold message dependencies.
It introduces two more message states: pending and delivered
The valid column in the database was renamed to state to better reflect
its new extended meaning.
The DatabaseComponent was extended with three methods for:
* adding dependencies
* getting dependencies of a message
* getting messages that depend on a message (dependents)
* getting messages to be delivered (by startup hook)
* getting pending messages to be possibly delivered (by startup hook)
In order to reflect the new states, things that were previously true for
VALID messages have been changed to now be true for DELIVERED messages.
Since pending messages should not be available to clients, many database
queries have been modified to only return results for delivered
messages.
All added methods and changes should come with updated unit tests.
Please note that the database version was bumped in this commit.
Poller refactoring, replace Timer with ScheduledExecutorService
* Replace Timer with ScheduledExecutorService (closes#258)
* Move automatic connection logic from PluginManager to Poller
* Reschedule polling when connections are opened or closed, making the poller more responsive to reductions in the polling interval
See merge request !180
Try harder to connect to contacts
* When an outgoing connection is lost, try to reconnect to the contact straight away
* Use periodic polling for Tor, regardless of whether our hidden service descriptor has been published
* Reduce polling intervals for all plugins (this can be reverted if we solve the connectivity issues)
Closes#262, #314. Hopefully helps with #361.

Forum Sharing Client Backend
This MR replaces the old `ForumSharingManagerImpl` with a new one
which is based on state machines and the `ProtocolEngine`.
There is a `SharerEngine` and a `InviteeEngine` that take care of state
transitions, messages, events and trigger actions to be carried out by
the `ForumSharingManagerImpl`. This is all very similar to the
Introduction Client.
The general sharing paradigm has been changed from sharing as a state to
sharing as an action. Now the UI can allow users to invite contacts to
forums. The contacts can accept or decline the invitation. Also, the
Forum Sharing Manager is notified when users leave a forum.
Please note that you will need the UI to actually test this. It is coming up soon in another MR.
Closes#322

Closes#322
Methods for creating, adding and removing forums have been moved to the
`ForumManager`. In order to still handle removing forums properly, a
`RemoveForumHook` has been introduced.
Methods for sharing forums with all current and future contacts have
been removed along with the localGroup where this information was saved.
The `ShareForumActivity` now has the proper label.
The `SessionId` and the `ProtocolEngine` have been moved to the
`clients` package.
This addresses part of #322 and part of what has been discussed in #320.
* force decline when two of our own identities are introduced to each
other
* throw away introduction requests to the same identity
(impossible to trigger from UI)
Closes#284
Clean up tests
* Broke up ConstantsTest (#280) - the key encoding parts are now in KeyEncodingAndParsingTest, the message encoding parts are in MessageSizeIntegrationTest
* Renamed the other integration tests in briar-android-tests
* Moved the integration tests in briar-android-tests to the top-level package, as they all involve code from multiple packages
* Separated DatabaseExecutorModule from DatabaseModule so we can use a different @DatabaseExecutor in integration tests
* Merged AppModule with AndroidModule (@ernir, this touches code you're working on but I don't think there are any conflicts)
* Renamed some TestUtils methods for consistency
* Used TestUtils.getRandomBytes() where applicable
Fixes#280.

Create local state for clients at startup. #279
Most of the clients we've written so far use private groups shared with individual contacts and/or a local group that's not shared with anyone. To make it easier to ensure that the necessary groups exist when we need them, this patch allows clients to register startup hooks for creating their local state.
Fixes#279.

Don't allow reentrant transactions
The database's transaction lock is reentrant, meaning that a thread that's already holding the lock can acquire it again. This would allow a thread that already has a transaction in progress to start another transaction, which could cause transaction isolation issues and/or lock timeouts on the database's internal locks.
Check that the current thread isn't already holding the lock when starting a transaction.

BQP with QR codes
This MR implements BQP for key agreement over short-range transports. It also implements the Android UI for using BQP with QR codes.
Closes#117.
