Update our media send flow to allow users to send multiple images/videos
at once. This change includes:
- New in-app media picker flow.
- Ability to caption images and videos.
- Image editing tools are made more prominent in the flow.
- Some fixes to the image editing tools.
A new, fullscreen camera capture flow that easily allows you to capture
and edit a photo before sending it. Replaces the current half-screen
camera button.
This also fixes the situation where we block group-leave messages,
preventing blocked contacts from leaving groups.

Also, this forced us to upgrade libsignal-service, which fixes the
websocket timeout issues. Thanks to @dpapavas!

We were hitting the transaction limit size. This change scales down
shortcut icons to be at most 300x300, which comes out to ~360kb, which
should be safely under the limit of 1mb.

Previously, we'd only show the attachment button when the user had
yet to enter any text. To add an attachment after text was entered,
you'd have to go to the three-dot menu. Now we just show a little
attach button in the text area.
I also took the opportunity to clean up other button paddings and
stuff in the compose area so things look better and react to text
sizes more predictably.
Sending shared contacts isn't backwards-compatible, so we want to have a
few releases where receiving is enabled, but not sending. That way, when
we enable sending, most users should be able to properly receive the
shared contact messages.
When you share a vCard from an external app (like the Contacts app) into
Signal, we'll now convert it to a pretty Shared Contact message and
allow you to choose which fields of the contact you wish to send.
The "contact" option in the attachments tray now brings you through an
optimized contact sharing flow, allowing you to select specific fields
to share. The contact is then presented as a special message type,
allowing you to interact with the card to add the contact to your system
contacts, invite them to signal, initiate a signal message, etc.
Previously, quotes were not saved to drafts, meaning they would be lost
when leaving the conversation or app. Now, a QuoteId (which represents
the necessary data to restore the QuoteModel) is serialized and stored
in the DraftDatabase.

Previously, we were always rendering images as squares. Instead of doing
that, we now render them as close to true-to-size as possible (within
reasonable min/max width/height boundaries).
In a number of locations in the code, there were conversions of message
expiration times from seconds to milliseconds, and then assigned to `long`
contexts. However these conversions were being done as integer multiplication
rather than long multiplication, meaning that there was a potential for
overflows.
Specifically, the maximum value that could be represented before overflowing
was (2^31 / 1000 / 60 / 60 / 24) days = 24.8 days (< 1 month). Luckily the
current allowed timeouts are all less than that value, but this fix would
remove the artificial restriction, effectively allowing values of 1000x greater
(68 years), at least for android.

The whole recipient pipeline needs to be changed more subsantially,
particularly given the way directory discovery works with it. This
will temporarily solve the problem though.
