Retained messages aren't pushed to the listener

🐛 Bug Report

A publisher publish a retained message, after that a subscriber subscribe to the same topic and should receive the retained message despite at wire level the publish happens.

🔬 How To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Run the next test code

Code sample

@Test
    public void test() throws Exception {
        // connect a publisher
        final Mqtt5BlockingClient publisher = com.hivemq.client.mqtt.MqttClient.builder()
            .useMqttVersion5()
            .identifier("publisher")
            .serverHost("localhost")
            .serverPort(1883)
            .buildBlocking();
        Mqtt5Connect connectRequest = Mqtt5Connect.builder()
            .cleanStart(true)
            .build();
        assertEquals(Mqtt5ConnAckReasonCode.SUCCESS, publisher.connect(connectRequest).getReasonCode(), "publisher connected");

        // publish a retained message on topic metric/temperature/living
        publisher.publishWith()
            .topic("metric/temperature/living")
            .payload("18".getBytes(StandardCharsets.UTF_8))
            .retain(true)
            .qos(MqttQos.AT_LEAST_ONCE)
            .send();

        // connect a subscriber to the same topic
        final Mqtt5BlockingClient subscriber = com.hivemq.client.mqtt.MqttClient.builder()
            .useMqttVersion5()
            .identifier("subscriber_with_retain_as_published")
            .serverHost("localhost")
            .serverPort(1883)
            .buildBlocking();
        assertEquals(Mqtt5ConnAckReasonCode.SUCCESS, subscriber.connect().getReasonCode(), "subscriber_with_retain_as_published" + " connected");
        subscriber.subscribeWith()
            .topicFilter("metric/temperature/living")
            .qos(MqttQos.AT_LEAST_ONCE)
            .send();

        // publish reaches the subscriber and also retain flag should be true
        try (Mqtt5BlockingClient.Mqtt5Publishes publishes = subscriber.publishes(MqttGlobalPublishFilter.ALL)) {
            Optional<Mqtt5Publish> publishMessage = publishes.receive(2, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
            if (!publishMessage.isPresent()) {
                fail("Expected to receive a publish message");
                return;
            }
            Mqtt5Publish msg = publishMessage.get();
            final String payload = new String(msg.getPayloadAsBytes(), StandardCharsets.UTF_8);
            assertEquals("18", payload, "Shared message must be received");
            assertEquals(MqttQos.AT_LEAST_ONCE, msg.getQos());
            assertTrue(msg.isRetain(), "Publish must be retained also if the subscription 'retain as published' is set to 1");
        }
    }

Environment

Where are you running/using this client? On embedded test

Hardware or Device? not important

What version of this client are you using? 1.3.3

JVM version? Adoptium 17

Operating System? MacOS

Which MQTT protocol version is being used? MQTT 5

Which MQTT broker (name and version)? Moquette 0.18-SNAPSHOT

Screenshots

📈 Expected behavior

Once a subscriber subscribe to a topic that matches a previously retained message, when the PUB message reaches the client, than that message should be pushed to the listener.

pcap that demonstrate that the publish reaches the client. pub_retained.pcapng.gz
