Subject: [PATCH] fix: someone removed from a group keeps a chat shared with
 that group open (#32535)

When an admin took someone out of a group, a chat shared with that group with "Allow replies" stayed open on that person's screen, message box included. Changing a group drops that person's live connection, and when it came back the chat was only checked again if the server let them back in, so a refused rejoin left the page as it was. Now the chat is checked again after every answer, so someone who lost access is sent to the home page.

Fixes #32527
