build: anotherim-js 0.7.20

A picture with a caption is sent as two messages. The receiver marks only the picture as read, so the caption stays delivered.
The chat shows the bubble as read, while the chat list shows grey delivered ticks.

steps:

Send a picture with a caption to a contact.
Wait until the contact reads it.
Compare the bubble in the chat with the chat list row.

expected: The chat list shows read ticks, as the chat does

actual: The chat shows read, the chat list shows delivered

A picture with a caption is stored as two parts, the picture with the caption attached after it. The read marker named the picture, so the bubble turned read, but the chat list only redrew its row for the newest part, the caption, and kept the delivered ticks until it was reloaded. The list now redraws for the picture too, so both show read at the same moment. Fixed in libtacky 1.2.0-rc2, in app 0.8.0-rc2.
