Race condition with persist when creating a channel and deleting it right away

What happened?

We are developing a feature like ChatGPT channels. We create a channel and push the page. If the user doesn't send a message in the channel, we call it channel.delete(). Problem: When using the StreamChannelListView, we see the deleted channels, and then the page es, refreshes, and they are gone because of the way the StreamChannelListController works with the doInitialLoad method. Furthermore, logging this method:

  @override
  Future<void> deleteChannels(List<String> cids) {
    assert(_debugIsConnected, '');
    _logger.info('deleteChannels');
    return db!.channelDao.deleteChannelByCids(cids);
  }

deleteChannelByCids returned an integer with the number of affected rows, and the amount is 0. This means that the delete event arrives before the insert persists.

Steps to reproduce

1. Use the StreamChannelListView widget to view the channels; sort by creation time to see the channel first.
2. Create a new channel and push it to view.
3. Pop, and on dispose, delete the channel if no messages are sent to this channel.
4. Hot-reload the app and see the channel, or hot-reload while offline to fetch from persist only.
5. Not happening - pop the page earlier.
