+// Module to upgrade the schema of messages, e.g. migrate attachments to disk.
+// `processAll` is meant to be run after the initial database migrations
+// (12 – 17) and purposely doesn’t rely on our Backbone IndexedDB adapter to
+// prevent subsequent migrations to run (18+) but rather uses direct IndexedDB
+// access. This includes avoiding usage of `storage` module which uses Backbone
