Description

### Steps to reproduce

Working on Tchap iOS Dev team.

Element 1.11.2 merged.

Sometimes, when running the app from Xcode directly on my device, I got this crash :

```

```

It doesn't happen on Simulator. There's no DB upgrade in the log on simulator.

On my device, I install over an old version. That's why the database upgrade is fired I think.
But I suspect the DB upgrade could be the source of the problem.

### Outcome

#### What did you expect?

The app to launch.

#### What happened instead?

The app crash in DEV mode (normal) because of an assert about "Cannot create crypto"
