Fixed a bug where the ConfigurationMessage was getting generated before the contact state was persisted to the database in the message request flow causing odd behaviours (now generating the ConfigurationMessage within the same transaction)
Fixed a bug where sending a message to an existing message request thread once the message requests item has been hidden would show the message requests notification and trigger the section to re-appear on the home screen
Fixed a bug where blocked contacts weren't getting excluded from the contacts list in the configuration message
Fixed a bug where the notification count could be increased for message requests
Fixed a bug where an approved contact could be 'unapproved' due to an order of execution issue when generating the config sync message
Fixed a check to avoid registering for push notifications when on the simulator (old check didn't cater for M1 Macs)
Moved the 'hasHiddenMessageRequests' into the group user defaults so it can be accessed within the notification extension
Added code to handle an edge case where an old client could incorrectly un-approve a contact via a legacy configuration message
Added the MessageRequestsViewController
Added a 'Message Requests' button to the settings screen
Added accept/reject buttons for message requests to the ConversationVC
Added the ability to hide the message request item on the HomeVC (re-appears if you get a new message request)
Added code to handle an edge-case where the message request approval state wouldn't be returned to the sender due to the recipient running an old version of the app
Prevented contacts which aren't associated with an approved thread from appearing when creating a closed group
Disabled notifications for threads which aren't approved
Updated the app notification count to exclude unapproved messages
Updated the app to ignore closed group creation messages if the group has no admins which are approved contacts
Fixed up the keyboard avoidance behaviour in the ConversationVC
Fixed a couple of minor interaction issues which affected some devices
Fixed an issue where the database migrations would run on the 2nd launch when creating a new account (causing odd behaviours)
Updated the share extension to load URL previews.
Updated the ThreadPickerVC to send plain text & URLs in the same way they are sent for normal messages.
