Forum controller thread safety and tree safety
This branch solves the concurrent forum issues by code restructure and refactoring.

Like other recursive operations on the dependency graph, this is
not done in a single transaction to prevent an attacker from creating
arbitrary large transactions.
So at startup, the `ValidationManager` finds and resumes any
unfinished operations, by looking for shared messages with unshared
dependencies.
Comments and reblogs need to depend on the post they refer to.
Since message dependencies are limited to one group,
the post and also the comments need to be wrapped
when commented on or reblogged to another blog.
For this reason, in addition to comments, two new wrapping message types
are introduced. They retain all data of the original messages and allow
for reconstruction and signature verification.
This commit breaks backwards compatibility with old blog posts.
It removes the content type, title and parent ID from the post
message structure.
The forum UI depended on sync layer events such as MessageStateChangedEvent.
Now, the forum client broadcasts its own high-level event (`ForumPostReceivedEvent`)
with the information the UI needs (`ForumPostHeader`).
Closes#310
This implements a simple initial blog client that covers the basic blog
actions, but no deletion/removal of blogs, yet.
Classes for Blogs and Blog Post Headers have been introduced along with
the associated factories.
A `BlogPostValidator` has been added that validates incoming blog posts.
Closes#402Closes#404
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.
