Adapt to the new channels #2871

Description

@Hocuri

When updating core to v2.24.0, which as chatmail/core#7268 merged, some adaptions are needed:

  • There is a new QR type DC_QR_ASK_JOIN_BROADCAST = 204 (CFFI) / AskJoinBroadcast (JsonRPC)
    • It should be handled just as DC_QR_ASK_VERIFYGROUP and DC_QR_ASK_VERIFYCONTACT, just that the dialog shown after scanning uses the translated string qrscan_ask_join_channel
  • Cloning an outgoing broadcast channel should be impossible
  • In the profile view of broadcast channels, Add member should be hidden, and instead QR Invite Code should be shown
  • While creating a broadcast channel:
    • the "Add Members"/"Add Recipients" option should be hidden.
    • The translated string chat_new_channel_hint should be shown.
  • UI-testing using the list at [Tracking issue] End-to-End encrypted Broadcast Channels chatmail/core#6884
