Use new group metadata for showing lists What was supposed to be a minimal change turned into a rather large MR. I did my best to keep things in separate commits, so I can still split this into smaller MRs if desired. While making use of the new group metadata in the contact and forum list, I noticed some other things in need of improvement to get rid of needing to load all messages: * Refactor `SharingManager` so its events provide message headers that can be used to update list items * Add `GroupId` to conversation items, so the metadata of the respective group can be updated as well when marking the items read * Create a very basic `ConversationManager` so the GroupCount for the various clients can be queried in one go without needing to know all their groups per contact * Fix a nasty bug that caused forum and blog invitation to not update their read state * Fix some bugs related to displaying the forum list with proper unread count Some casual measurements with just a few contacts and messages showed a reduction of the contact list load time by one third.

Briar is a messaging app designed for activists, journalists, and anyone else who needs a safe, easy and robust way to communicate. Unlike traditional messaging tools such as email, Twitter or Telegram, Briar doesn't rely on a central server - messages are synchronized directly between the users' devices. If the Internet's down, Briar can sync via Bluetooth or Wi-Fi, keeping the information flowing in a crisis. If the Internet's up, Briar can sync via the Tor network, protecting users and their relationships from surveillance.
