Usernames that contained underscores were parsed by markdown first. This broke the diaspora IDs and also added weird html at places where it wasn't needed. Escaping them before sending the message through the markdown parser fixes this issue. As underscores are the only allowed character that can be used for markdown that is also allowed inside a diaspora ID, this escaping can be kept pretty simple. This only fixes it for the mobile UI at the moment, for the desktop UI it's probably better to fix it in markdown-it. Related to #7975
