IDLE keepalives are not sent frequently enough on Android when the app is suspended

[link2xt]

Delta Chat attempts to interrupt IDLE every 5 minutes:

deltachat-core-rust/src/imap/idle.rs

Lines 14 to 20 in 81e9628

	/// Timeout after which IDLE is finished
	/// if there are no responses from the server.
	///
	/// If `* OK Still here` keepalives are sent more frequently
	/// than this duration, timeout should never be triggered.
	/// For example, Dovecot sends keepalives every 2 minutes by default.
	const IDLE_TIMEOUT: Duration = Duration::from_secs(5 * 60);

However, this does not seem to happen because monotonic clock used almost everywhere does not advance when the app is suspended and boottime clocks which should be used instead are not available in Rust yet:

• Provide boottime timers tokio-rs/tokio#3185
• Android: Instant not advancing while the screen is off rust-lang/rust#71860
• Use CLOCK_BOOTTIME for Instant in Fuchsia/Android rust-lang/rust#132331

FairEmail apparently does not have such problems, but it is using Java APIs everywhere:

Apparently the bug can be worked around by reducing imap_idle_notify_interval in Dovecot:
