channels.toggleViewForumAsMessages

Users may also choose to display messages from all topics of a forum as if they were sent to a normal group, using a "View as messages" setting in the local client: this setting only affects the current account, and is synced to other logged in sessions using this method.

Invoking this method will update the value of the view_forum_as_messages flag of channelFull or dialog and emit an updateChannelViewForumAsMessages.
