Momo's message read status is achieved through the following mechanism:
1.client tag: When a user opens a message, the client immediately marks it as read
2.Server sync: After marking is completed, it will be synchronized to the server when the network is open.
3.status update: After the server updates the status, it will be pushed to the other user.
