I lift this function out of message_store to
break some dependencies, and it's also more
consistent with the rest of the codebase:
alert_words.process_message
pm_conversations.process_message
recent_topics.process_messages
recent_senders.process_message_for_senders
We can do further cleanup to make these names
consistent (and possibly have them all work in
bulk), but that's out of the scope of the current PR.
We move the message_store.add_message_metadata function
(and all its dependencies) into a new module called
message_helper and rename the function to process_new_message.
(It does a bit more than adding message metadata, such
as updating our message store.)
We also have a "protected" interface now in message_store,
so that message_helper can access the message store:
update_message_cache
get_cached_message
Because update_message_cache is identical to
the former create_mock_message, we just renamed it
in the tests.
Most callers should use these functions:
message_helper.process_new_message (setting)
message_store.get (getting)
It's slightly annoying that the setter interface
is in a different module than the getter interface,
but that's how you break a bunch of dependencies.
We also extract the tiny message_user_ids class:
user_ids()
add_user_ids()
All the code moves here are pretty trivial, and
the code that was moved maintains 100% line
coverage.
The module name `message_helper` is not ideal, but it's a single
function and it'll save time to just do the topology change now and
leave thinking through the right name to later.
