[Kde-pim] Collections without remoteId abort imap sync

(I also have database entries in this state,)

Is it possible to add a "not NULL" constraint to the database for
remoteId? That would prevent such breakages...but then again, I don't
know what our backends support. If that is NOT available, then perhaps
at startup, all records which are in this state could be purged (with
appropriate logging) since AFAICS, no resource can use items in this
state?
