Micro Blogs UI
**Attention:** This MR includes several other commits which are supposed to end up in separate MRs. I suggest that you review **per commit**. Once the first two commits have green light, I can split out the other commits into other MRs. This way I don't have to work myself through a long rebase chain every time I make a change to the bottom MR.
This MR is full of commits that introduce features that we will not be using initially. The last commit implements the Micro Blogs UI on top of the framework the first commits establish and hides/disables all future features for now.
I suggest we merge this as is and clean things up later when we have a clearer idea what features we will be doing eventually.

Show all Forum Invitations, not only the first one to prevent cut-offs and forks
This MR solves the problems outlined in #461 by always showing forum invitations, even if the user already subscribed to the forum.
Available Forums have been renamed to Forum Invitations in the UI:
Closes#461
See merge request !241
* Explain what "account creation" means on first run
* Use hints instead of dedicated text views
* Move password strength meter up into the user's view
* Always move user's view to current input field
* Improve "Forgot Password" dialog
Closes#151
Simple Empty State Messages
This MR implements very basic and simple empty state messages for the
current features.
This is how it looks (note that the contact add FAB will be removed soon):
Closes#327
See merge request !236
This commit addes a combined blog feed that shows all posts of all
subscribed blogs in the order the blog posts have been received.
For now, this commit also hides other blog functionality like adding
additional blogs and browsing individual blogs.
Closes#417
This allows for swiping left/right to read other posts by using
a ViewPager.
This hasn't been done as a separate activity, but with
fragments, so both can share the `BlogPersistentData` without
needing to reload it.
Closes#428
This does not yet support multiple identities. It just shows blogs
created by the first identity, but can easily be adapted for
multi-identity support.
Closes#410
Clicking the plus in the toolbar open the `CreateBlogActivity` which
allows the user to create a new blog. Only the first identity is
considered, but support for more identities can be easily added later.
The actual list of blogs in the My Blogs tab will be done in the next
commit.
Adds badges to the forum list that indicate unread posts
This MR adds badges to the forum list that indicate unread posts. It does so by extending the compound view `TextAvatarView` and provides convenient setters that take care of the required UI changes. The new badge can also be used to indicate a problem with the forum.
I decided not to check if the forum is shared from someone or with someone and indicate a problem in this case, because this requires iterating two times over all contacts and their group metadata for each forum. If someone considers it important to check for this information, we can create a ticket for doing this within the forum and not in the forum list.

This replaces the custom layouts in the navigation drawer with a
`NavigationView` and adds a menu entry for Blogs.
A Main Blogs fragment is added that holds a `TabLayout` and a
`ViewPager`. Five tabs are already added, but they just have a single
placeholder fragment that is to be replaced by the actual fragments.
Closes#409
It does so by extending the compound view `TextAvatarView` and provides
convienient setters that take care of the required UI changes.
The new badge can also be used to indicate a problem with the forum.
Closes#408
The new activity shows who you are sharing a forum with and who shares a
forum with you. It is accessible from the overflow menu when in a forum.
Closes#398
Forum Sharing Client UI
This changes `ShareForumActivity` to use two fragments to facilitate
forum sharing with the new Forum Sharing Client backend.
The `ContactSelectorFragment` allows the user to select a
number of contacts. If there is an ongoing sharing session or the forum
is already shared with the contact, it is disabled in the list. If there
is at least one contact selected, a button appears in the toolbar that
brings the user to the `ShareForumMessageFragment` where the user can
write an optional message to be send along with the invitation.
After sending an invitation, the user is brought back to the forum that
she shared and there is a snackbar showing up briefly to indicate the
successful invitation.
The invitation is shown along with the message within the private
conversation of each contact. The person who shares the forum also sees
the invitation and the message as outgoing messages that also display
the current status of the messages.
A notification is shown like for other private messages as well.
Please note that this commit does not include a way for users to respond
to invitations. This is in MR !172. Both MRs are based on the new backend in !170.

Turn list of available forums into a BriarRecyclerView with XML layout.
Allow to respond to forum invitations from the list of available forums.
The user can either accept or decline an invitation.
New List of Forums
The adapter of the `ForumListFragment` has been changed into a
`BriarRecyclerView` and all its code has been adapted and simplified
accordingly.
All UI of the forum list is now defined in XML layouts. This enabled me to move the snackbar into onCreate().

Set ongoing notification to minimum priority
Setting the priority of the ongoing notification to PRIORITY_MIN prevents it from being shown in the status bar on Android 4.1 and later. The service still runs in the foreground.
Thanks to @str4d for finding the solution. Closes#154.

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.
This commit is a small change that replaces the custom UI elements in
the forum list with a Snackbar and an Toolbar menu.
Addresses one part (2b) of #305
