Simon Redman a14b39d541 [SMS App] Make sms app not crash when conversation is selected with no devices connected
Summary: This patch fixes T10184 and stops the SMS app from crashing when a conversation is selected but no devices are connected. It also allows the SMS app to access the cached messages in the ConversationsDbusInterface so the app is still slightly useful even when the device is disconnected.

Test Plan:
- Open sms app
- Open a few conversations
- Disconnect phone (Force close app?)
- Re-open a conversation which was previously opened
  - Verify that the messages appear. It is possible to scroll up to view any older cached messages too!
- Open a conversation which was not opened previously
  - Verify that a single messages is shown (since this was the only one in cache, from populating the list of all conversations)
  - Verify that attempting to scroll this conversation does nothing, but also does not crash the app

Note: Opening the app with no phone connected will cause it to lose its handle on the deviceId, so it can't spawn a new Dbus interface, so it will remain blank and empty. Solving that is a project for another day.

Writing a plugin for KDE Connect
=================================

For the desktop client (this project):
--------------------------------------

1. Enter the "plugins" directory.
2. Copy the "ping" under a different name ("findmyphone" in this example).
3. Add "add_subdirectory(findmyphone)" to CMakeLists.txt after the others "add_subdirectory".
1. Enter the new "findmyphone" directory.
5. Edit CMakeLists.txt by replacing "ping" with "findmyphone".
6. Rename other files in this directory by replacing "ping" with "findmyphone"
7. Write a description of your plugin into "README"
8. Edit findmyphoneplugin.cpp and findmyphoneplugin.h.
  A. Change license header.
  B. Replace (case sensitive) "ping" with "findmyphone", "PingPlugin" with "FindMyPhonePlugin" and "PING" with "FINDMYPHONE".
9. Edit kdeconnect_findmyphone.desktop file:
  A. Replace "ping" with "findmyphone".
  B. Change name, description, icon, author, email, version, website, license info.
  C. Remove all the translations
  D. Set X-KDEConnect-SupportedPacketType and X-KDEConnect-OutgoingPacketType to the packet type your plugin will receive
     and send, respectively. In this example this is "kdeconnect.findmyphone". Make sure that this matches what is defined in
     the findmyplugin.h file (in the line "#define PACKET_TYPE_..."), and also in Android.
10. Now you have an empty skeleton to implement your new plugin logic.

For Android (project kdeconnect-android):
-----------------------------------------

1. Change directory to src/org/kde/kdeconnect/Plugins.
2. Copy "PingPlugin" under a different name ("FindMyPhonePlugin" in this example).
1. Enter the new "FindMyPhonePlugin" directory.
4. Rename "PingPlugin.java" to "FindMyPhonePlugin.java"
5. Edit it. Replace (case sensitive) "Ping" with "FindMyPhone", "ping" with "findmyphone", "PING" with "FINDMYPHONE"
   and "plugin_ping" with "plugin_findmyphone".
6. Open res/values/strings.xml. Find and copy the lines "pref_plugin_ping_desc" and "pref_plugin_ping" replacing "ping"
   with "findmyphone" and edit the plugin name and description between <string> </string>).
7. Open src/org/kde/kdeconnect/Plugins/PluginFactory.java.
  A. Copy "import … PingPlugin" line with replacing "PingPlugin" with "FindMyPhonePlugin".
  B. Copy "PluginFactory.registerPlugin(PingPlugin.class);" line with replacing "PingPlugin" with "FindMyPhonePlugin".
8. Open src/org/kde/kdeconnect/NetworkPacket.java. Copy a "public final static String PACKET_TYPE_PING = …" line
   replacing "PING" with the packet type you will be using (should match the desktop client).
9. Now you have an empty skeleton to implement your new plugin logic.
