Subject: [PATCH] Always send messages as HTML

This works around limitations of Qt's rich text detection and prevents
some messages from being shown wrong, like in #532.

In theory it is not ideal to send every message as HTML, however it's
not a significant problem and we already do it for edits and replies
(which also explains why edited messages are sometimes magically
rendered correctly while the original is not).
