Alexandre Kühn 7cdfe99d44 [FIX] mail: do not auto-focus new open chat window
Revision on https://github.com/odoo/odoo/commit/cd34f6de727d5b3858420cff3c9d3c5995c4e75c

Before this commit, when receiving a new message from a new DM
or livechat, the newly opened chat window was automatically
focused and marking messages as read.

Chat windows that are automatically opened without any user
interaction, such as when receiving a new message from a chat,
should not be focused. Those chat windows are "passive", and
the user must click on them in order to have focus and mark
messages as read (the chat window is no longer passive as a
result). The bug has been introduced by the refactoring from
the commit above.

In fact, there was a very short period of time during which the
chat window was passive. However, due to the way chat window
server-side state synchronization works, the chat window was
automatically closed then re-opened. This resulted in some visual
flickering of the chat window ('open' > 'close' > 'open'), and
the conversation was automatically marked as read. This was a
consequence of the actions 'open' > 'close' > 'open' that removed
the passive property of the chat window.

Chat window server-side synchronization relies on a notification
that tells the state of the conversation. Due to bad design, this
notification had exactly the same format as the one for notifying
all browser tabs of a newly joined conversation.

This commit fixes the issue by distinguishing "channel join"
and "chat window state" notification, so that the former is not
treated as a chat window notification. It fixes the problem
because it was precisely the "channel join" notification that caused
the chat window to close and loose its passive property.
