Don't try to decrypt MAM messages on a new device #7

Closed vanitasvitae closed 7 years ago

Could be done by eg. stopping to decrypt after 50 failures (like Conversations), or similar. The library should do this, because when the device created fresh keys, it will not be able to decrypt all messages in MAM, since none will be encrypted for the freshly generated key.

Maybe this should be done client side.
