feat: Assign message to ad-hoc group with matching name and members (#…

…5385)

This should fix ad-hoc groups splitting when messages are fetched out of order from different
folders or otherwise reordered, or some messages are missing so that the messages reference chain is
broken, or a member was removed from the thread and readded later, etc. Even if this way two
different threads are merged, it looks acceptable, having many threads with the same name/subject
and members isn't a common use case.
