Round time units

Delta Chat does not round the low precision time units showing when messages are sent, which can easily confuse or mislead users. Users normally expect a message sent 1 hour and 59 minutes ago to say “sent 2 hours ago” but instead Delta Chat will say “sent 1 hour ago”. A message sent 1 day and 23 hours ago should say “sent 2 days ago” not “sent 1 day ago”.

Expected behavior

Low precision time units are rounded to the nearest unit

Actual behavior

Low precision time units are not rounded to the nearest unit
