When searching for an existing conversation using a phone number, it’s possible
to click on ‘Start conversation…’ and have that new dummy entry overwrite the
existing conversation.
This change ensures we are always showing a dummy conversation model that is not
part of the conversation collection. Adding it is always idempotent as it goes
through `getOrCreateAndWait`.
Class: `ConversationController`.
This function should not be used in application code as it creates potentially
invalid `Conversation` instances in our global conversation collection. We keep
making it available for testing purposes.

Use ‘Enter name or number’ as prompt’
This follows implementation of Android and recommendation from Alissa.
* Fetch conversations once, clean up ConversationController API
Race conditions around re-fetching have caused some problems recently,
so this removes the need to re-fetch conversations. They are fetched
once or saved once, and that is it. All interaction goes through the
ConversationController, which is the central source of truth.
We have two rules for Conversations:
1. If a conversation is in the ConversationController it doesn't need
to be fetched, but its initial fetch/save might be in progress. You
can wait for that fetch/save with conversation.initialPromise.
2. If a conversation is not already in the ConversationController, it's
not yet in the database. It needs to be added to the
ConversationController and saved to the database.

FREEBIE
While typing a number, the new contact element is faded out. When the
number becomes valid it is opaque. If the element is clicked while
invalid, it displays 'Invalid number' and waits for the input to change
again. A new conversation is only opened if the number is valid.
// FREEBIE
Search view triggers an open event when a valid phone number is entered
and the 'Create new contact' card is clicked.
Inbox view should listen and respond to this event. It should also
disregard select events on the new contact element since those are fired
before phone number validation.
Finally, the search view can stop listening to select events because the
inbox view is already doing so.
// FREEBIE
Search box finds or creates a conversation given a phone number in
local (to the user's region) or international format.
Previously you had to enter e164 format to set up the conversation
correctly.
If the number is not valid, do not open the conversation.
TODO: user feedback on invalid numbers.
// FREEBIE
Using the search field produces a filtered view of all contacts and
groups containing the input. To make this fast and scalable, add an
index on a 'tokens' array containing words from the conversation name
and different forms of phone number.
