Description

If OpenSlides is opened in several tabs (Tab A and Tab B) and the chat has a new message the new message is displayed as new in all tabs. If the message is viewed in tab A, tab B does not update the chat and still displays the messages as new.

Wanted behaviour:
If the message is viewed in one tab every other open tab should then stop displaying the message as new

Research direction

Start by tracing the chat new-message state and how it is synchronized between open browser tabs. Reproduce the Tab A and Tab B scenario, then verify that viewing a message in one tab removes its new status from the other tab without affecting unrelated messages.
