When initialized, or when expiration-related attributes change, expiring
messages will set timers to self-destruct. On self-destruct they trigger
'expired' events so that frontend listeners can clean up any collections
and views referencing them.
At startup, load all messages pending expiration so they can start their
timers even if they haven't been loaded in the frontend yet.
Todo: Remove expired conversation snippets from the left pane.
Move away from inline style attributes for setting contact colors.
Apply colors by name via css classes instead. Also lays groundwork
for syncing contact colors.

Fixes a session management problem where, after resolving a conflict
with some contact, that contact would get bad mac as a result of us
sending them a new prekey message before processing a pending conflicted
prekey message received from them earlier.

When deleting all messages in a conversation, the entry in the left pane
should be inserted into the alphabetical portion of the list. To keep it
in this collection, do not nullify active_at.
To ensure the list view is keeping itself correctly sorted, make sure
that resorting behavior is triggered any time a relevant attribute is
changed.
This fixes deleted conversations jumping to the top of the list, and
conversation order scrambling when getting a group or contact sync
message from our master device.

Previously, if a message was sent in between the receive time of an
incoming message and the time it is actually added to the conversation's
message collection (which only occurs later after several async
callbacks), the incoming message would be inserted not-at-the-end of the
collection since it is ordered by receive time. This tricked the front
end into assuming the message was an older message instead of a new one.

Remove individual messages from Notifications when marked read.
Previously this was only done from the conversation model when marking
the entire conversation as read.
Fixes#717
// FREEBIE
Since the introduction of infinite scroll, the delete messages function
has only deleted the currently loaded set of messages in a conversation.
To fix this, we should fetch all the messages and then delete them.

Refactor libphonenumber.validateNumber into libphonenumber.parseNumber,
which encapsulates the try-catch pattern used in number parsing and
returns an object of info about the input number rather tha throwing
since we expect to get some invalid number inputs the user is typing.
In the conversation model,
* Separate phone number validation from search token updating.
* Perform token update before save if the number was valid.
* Stop storing unneeded number variants as conversation properties.
// FREEBIE
Search box finds or creates a conversation given a phone number in
local (to the user's region) or international format.
Previously you had to enter e164 format to set up the conversation
correctly.
If the number is not valid, do not open the conversation.
TODO: user feedback on invalid numbers.

Previously, libtextsecure would send a sync message automatically
when appropriate. This fails if any recipient has a key conflict
or if our network connection fails mid-send.
Instead, when appropriate, return a the DataMessage encoded as an array
buffer for later syncing. This lets the application choose when to send
it, which we now do after any successful send to a recipient, rather
than after all recipients are successfully sent to.
Eventually we should move the DataMessage protobuf construction and
group sending logic to the application layer entirely, in which case
we wouldn't need libtextsecure to construct the sync message either.
