A recent change removed the type property to make markRead() behave
properly, but that broke our check 'should we send an update?' logic. So
instead of using `isIncoming()` we now use the thing we previously used
to determine whether a message was incoming: `receivedAt`.
When we mark a message as read, we go to the database to ensure that
older messages in this conversation are marked read as well. That
optimization was missing the read_at value provided to the starting
message, so now it is piped along to all of them.
Biggest changes forced by this: alt tags for all images, resulting in
new strings added to messages.json, and a new i18n paramter/prop added
in a plot of places.
Another change of note is that there are two new tslint.json files under
ts/test and ts/styleguide to relax our rules a bit there. This required
a change to our package.json script, as manually specifying the config
file there made it ignore our tslint.json files in subdirectories
Three locations were changed:
1. a group update, which lists a set of contacts
2. the contact name in the left pane
3. the conversation title
Three new components were added to window.Signal.Components to support
these scenarios, respectively:
1. Emojify
2. ContactName
3. ConversationTitle
Note that there are a number of other places in the app that should be
emojified, but never have been before. Essentially any place that a
contact name might be shown. A non-exhaustive list:
- Show group members
- Show safety number
- Verified change notification
- Disappearing timer change notification
- Contact verification notification
- Quote contact name
