8a900dce00 telegram-chat: delay confirmation of updates
Several devices can communicate with the same bot, and we want all of
them to receive their updates. However this can be tricky, as...

* ... sometimes internet connection can be unreliable or saturated.
* ... device can be busy with long running command.
* ... the Telegram bot api servers seem to implement what ever kind of
  rate limiting. Anybody can give details?

So let's confirm the update id after third request only. 😁 This gives
delayed devices some extra chances to catch up.

819c7294c6 introduce telegram-chat
Druvis from Mikrotik produced a video "MikroTik Telegram bot - Chat with
your Router?". He shows his script to chat with a Router via Telegram
bot to send it commands: https://youtu.be/KLX6j3sLRIE

This script is kind of limited and has several issues... 🥴

Let's make it robust, usable, multi-device capable and just fun! 😁

(Sadly Mikrotik has a policy to not allow links in Youtube comments.
Thus my comment with several hints was removed immediately. If anybody
is in contact with Druvis... Please tell him about this script!)
