Currently the separate topic was not used, as it's a bit tricky to
coordinate when multiple devices from different versions are present,
with the partitioned topic, probably this optimisation is not necessary
anymore, so removing this for now.

This is a backward/forward compatible change with status-go.
We are changing the way messages are confirmed from passing the
raw-object to status-go to a dedup-id instead, which needs to be sent
back.
Based on the response from status-go we detect whether they are ids or
object and act accordingly.

Currently it's very easy for contact details to get out of sync, the
simplest example is:
A & B are contacts.
A changes name.
B receives the updated name.
B re-install the app.
Until A changes name again, B will not see their name, picture and won't
be able to send push notifications.
This PR changes the behavior to publish account informations to contacts
every 24 hrs, to add some redundancy in this cases.
It also publishes a contact code every 12hrs.

Currently we use a single topic for discovery.
This provides the best obscurity at the cost of bandwidth, as a message
sent on the discovery topic will be received by any peer.
This PR changes this behavior and start listening on a partitioned
topic.
Each pk will be hashed to a limited number of topics.
Everytime someone is in a conversation with someone from another topic
they will have to listen as well to avoid loosing obscurity, because we
only forward messages that we also advertise in the bloom filter.
The choice for the number of partitions depends on 2 factors:
1) The expected number of users using the network
2) The average number of contacts each user
Any change to the discovery topic will need to be split across 3
releases, to avoid breaking compatibility:
1) Listen to the new and old topic, publish to the old topic
2) Listen to the new and old topic, publish to the new topic
3) Listen to the new topic, publish to the new topic
This is step 1.
This commit moves group chats to their own topic, based on the randomly
generated chat-id. It falls back on the discovery topic for those peers
who we can't fingerprint the version, for backward compatibility.
Members will now have to explicitly join a group chat to start receiving
messages from it.
Messages are still sent to users who have not joined for backward
compatibility.
Group updates are unaffected.
Implementation:
1. `transport.utils/message-id` function is called only in three places now
and accepts `from` and `raw_payload` as parameters.
ID is calculated as `sha3(from + raw_payload)`.
2. This means that for wrapped private group chat message
the raw payload of `GroupMembershipUpdate` is used.
Adds a `chat-id` field in `content` map.
The reason it has been added to the map instead of augmenting transit is
that it would simplify the calculation of `message-id`, which in this
case is consistent for both old & new clients.
`chat-id` also represents the `chat-id` with respect of the sender, as
in 1-to-1 chats that is asymmetric.
