Bug: Some notifications are not syncing

[ericvicenti]

Notifs do not show up in the app if the related data has not synced. This leads to inconsistency

There are two possible approaches and there are tradeoffs

Sync all relevant data

This has the advantage of working offline, but it is much heavier data usage.

Most of the time, this will result in a better UX. But it allows people to heavily spam your node by mentioning you on documents that you are not interested in

Download only the notif metadata

This means the notifs will show up correctly but the data may not be loaded until the user clicks

This can be reproduced by mentioning somebody in a document that they are not subscribed to. Then they won't see it in their desktop notifications

Ok it looks like we will download only the notif metadata (option 2)
