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.
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
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.
Closes#436

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
When a contact is added, her personal blog will also be added automatically.
Also, when a new identity is added, a personal blog for that identity is created.
Part of #436
Removes teaser and makes body mandatory.
It also adds support for deleting blogs and
introduces a getAuthorStatus() method to the IdentityManager
that takes a running transaction.
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
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.
Introduce a MessageContext class to be used by all validators
This change will allow to pass message dependencies from the client validators to the `ValidationManager`.
Please see my thoughts in #382 for more details.

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
The code for creating forums in ForumManager was used by
ForumSharingManager and also needed by InviteeEngine.
This extracts it into its own class.
Closes#375
Start plugins asynchronously
This prevents other services from getting stuck behind the plugin manager while the Tor plugin is starting, which takes several seconds. The plugin manager waits for each plugin to start before stopping it.
I've also added some canaries to plugins and services to ensure instances aren't started more than once.
See merge request !181
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.

This commit 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 invitiation. Also, the
Forum Sharing Manger is notified when users leave a forum.
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.
Show relevant introduction decline responses in the conversation
* If the user has already declined, we don't show that the other
introducee has declined as well. The backend doesn't have that information, so
this is compatible with the principle of showing what we know.
* If the user has already accepted or hasn't yet responded, we now show the
decline response in the private conversation with the introducer. If
the user hasn't yet responded, we hide the accept/decline buttons
in the introduction request message.
Please note that I do not have three devices at the moment to test this MR in its entirety in practice. I created another test which is hopefully sufficient to ensure that the modifications are correct.
Closes#295

decline response in the private conversation with the introducer. If
the user hasn't yet responded, we hide the accept/decline buttons
in the introduction request message.
Messages an introducee receives in a `FINISHED` state are now being
ignored and deleted.
Closes#295
* normal session where both introducees accept
* normal session where the first introducee declines
* normal session where the second introducee declines
* one session where a contact is introduced to herself
* one session where two identities of the same contact
are introduced to each other
This introduces a new IntroductionAbortedEvent to signal when the
protocol was aborted. It is not yet used in the UI.
It closes#276
* 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
When devices' clocks are out of sync, it is possible that a response is
shown before the request. This commit makes sure that the timestamp of
responses is always later than the last message in the conversation.
Some wording could be misunderstood to thing introductions were
successful even though they were not. That has been clarified.
A new database transaction was created when getting contacts and local
transport properties. This has been changed to re-use the existing
transaction.
Also addresses minor issues found in review.
