Description
Some notes are getting destroyed and only show an error message. This has been the case for quite some time. (See attached Screenshot)

Research direction
Start in the notes-android Android app by reproducing the issue with Android 13, app version 4.1.0 RC1, Nextcloud 25.0.5, and Notes 4.8.0. Investigate how the displayed OC encryption cipher error is handled and determine why affected notes are not rendered. Done means affected notes remain accessible instead of being replaced by the cipher error.
