Signal-android: Unable to remove person from group

Bug description

While it is easy to add people's numbers to groups, there does not seem to be a way to remove people's numbers from groups.

I need to do this because my friend changed his phone number. I see that I can "block" him, but that's not what I want to do: I want to remove that old number but not add it to a block list.

Hi @jgspratt, thanks for reaching out. Unfortunately blocking the old number is the only option right now, as removing isn't possible with the current version of groups. However, a new version of groups is coming very soon that will provide these types of capabilities. Stay tuned!

Additionally, these types of feature requests belong in our Community Forums as we try to reserve Github issues for bug reports. Thanks for being a Signal user!

@cody-signal
Will V1 groups be converted to V2 automatically, so that existing groups (with history) can be modified after V2 gets enabled?
