[BUG] socket.groupParticipantsUpdate fails silently

[olalonde]

Describe the bug When you try to add a participant to a group that the participant has left recently, it's not possible to add back the participant.

When this happens, the call to socket.groupParticipantsUpdate appears to succeed when it does not. It would be better if an error was thrown.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Created a group and add Alice
2. Alice leaves group
3. Try adding Alice back to group

Expected behavior An error should be thrown.

@aliazhar-id You used an "invite link" which is not affected by this limitation. See https://faq.whatsapp.com/420332980275753

Ah, did you mean that your call to socket.groupParticipantsUpdate is throwing an error?

[olalonde]

Ah I see, it returns a result object instead of throwing. https://github.com/WhiskeySockets/Baileys/blob/cd8542ff7c072b5e58d2d3de2396983a5304e5e1/src/Socket/groups.ts#L195

Ahh, I shouldn't have capture that last one.

when using a bot it cannot be added and returns an error. "left recently" the last one I joined manually using the invite link
