jolavillette f9b90cb26b GXS: one SQL query per group when no message filter is requested
RsGxsDataAccess::getMsgData() always ran the request through getMsgIdList(),
which walks every message meta of the group and returns the explicit list of
matching message ids. That list was then handed to RsDataService, whose
retrieveNxsMsgs() has two paths: a single "WHERE grpId=..." query when the id
set is empty, and one prepared query per message otherwise.

Since a request for a whole group carries an empty id set precisely to mean
"all messages", expanding it into 6400 explicit ids meant the fast path was
never taken when opening a channel: the store issued 6400 separate
sqlite3_prepare_v2 + step + finalize cycles against an encrypted database,
plus a full preliminary pass over the metas that produced nothing the caller
did not already know.

When none of mStatusMask, mMsgFlagMask, MSG_LATEST, MSG_ORIGMSG or MSG_THREAD
is set, no filtering can occur, so pass the request through untouched. The
resulting message set is identical, the meta pass disappears, and loading a
whole group collapses to a single SQL query.

Requests that do filter are unaffected and keep the previous path.

== RetroShare library

RetroShare is a decentralized, private, secure, cross-platform, communication
software.

RetroShare functionalities (file sharing, chat, messages, forums, channels...)
are implemented under the hood by libretroshare which offers a documented C++ and
JSON API.

While RetroShare is an application on its own, libretroshare is meant to be
used as part of other programs, some of them are
https://retroshare.cc[RetroShare-gui],
https://retroshare.cc[RetroShare-service],
https://gitlab.com/elRepo.io/elRepo.io-android[elRepo.io]
(let us know if there are more).


=== Continuous integration

=== Developer Documentation

All public API methods are documented with Doxygen comments, so the most updated
way to read documentation is reading those comments in `src/retroshare/`.

To use libretroshare as part of your Android application we suggest to add our
maven repository, and then specify the variant and version that fits your needs
as dependency. RetroShare is then exposed as an Android Service as you can see
at https://gitlab.com/RetroShare/libretroshare/-/blob/master/src/rs_android/org/retroshare/service/RetroShareServiceAndroid.java?ref_type=heads[RetroShareServiceAndroid.java] start it and then interact with it
via RetroShare JSON API.

.Example of adding libretroshare as dependency in Gradle
