The same person can be added multiple times as event participant to the same event via the mobile app

Bug Description

In the mobile app via the regular create event participant flow, via the mobile app 'line listing' of event participants and via linking events to existing cases and contacts, the same person can be added multiple times as event participant to the same event.

Reproduction Steps

I: Via the regular create event participant flow:

1. Log into the mobile app with a Default Surveillance Officer;
2. Open an existing event that you have access to;
3. Open the 'Event Participants' tab and click on the pencil icon to enter edit mode;
4. Then click on the + icon to add a new event participant;
5. Fill in the mandatory information and save;
6. Then navigate again on the same event to the 'Event participants' tab
7. Click to add another event participant;
8. Write in the form the exact same data as at step 5 and click to save;
9. In the 'Pick or create person' select the existing person and click 'Select';
   Actual behavior: The same person is now listed twice as event participant to the same event. After sync, this is also visible in the web app.

II: Via the mobile app 'line listing' ('Use rapid event participant entry')

1. Log into the mobile app with a Default Surveillance Officer;
2. Open an existing event that you have access to;
3. Open the 'Event Participants' tab and click on the pencil icon to enter edit mode;
4. Then click on the + icon to add a new event participant;
5. Click on the checkbox 'Use rapid event participant entry';
6. Fill in the mandatory information and save;
7. In the next form, add again the exact same information as for the previous event participant and save;
8. In the 'Pick or create person' select the existing person and click 'Select';
9. Navigate back to the event and observe the list of participants.
   Actual behavior: The same person is now listed as event participant to the same event. After sync, this is also visible in the web app.

III: Via linking an event to a case or contact

1. Log into the web app with a Default Surveillance Officer;
2. Open an existing event that you have access to;
3. Add a new event participant to that event and save;
4. Then navigate to the persons directory and look for the person created at step 3;
5. Create a case for that person;
6. Log in the mobile app with the same Default Surveillance Officer and sync everything;
7. Open the event used at step 2 and navigate to the 'Event participants' tab;
8. Click on the pencil icon to enable editing and then on the + to create a new event participant;
9. In the form, enter the exact same data as at step 3 and save;
10. In the pick or create person select the existing person and click 'Select';
    Actual behavior: The same person is now listed as event participant to the same event. After sync, this is also visible in the web app.

IV: Via linking an event to a case or contact

1. Log into the web app with a Default Surveillance Officer;
2. Open an existing event that you have access to;
3. Add a new event participant to that event and save;
4. Then navigate to the persons directory and look for the person created at step 3;
5. Create a case for that person;
6. Log in the mobile app with the same Default Surveillance Officer and sync everything;
7. Open the case created at step 7 and navigate to the 'Case events' tab;
8. Click to add an event and select the event from step 2;
9. Save everything and then navigate to the 'Event participants' tab of the event.
   Actual behavior: The same person is now listed as event participant to the same event. After sync, this is also visible in the web app.

Expected Behavior

At each of the scenarios, in the moment when the user tries to save an event participant that is for the same person, in the same event, the user should see a pop-up that informs them that the person is already an event participant in the same event, similar to how we have this in the web app.

Active and archived event participants in the same event should be taken into account.

I am reopening the ticket as the behavior described at scenario IV is still reproducible.

IV: Via linking an event to a case or contact

1. Log into the web app with a Default Surveillance Officer;
2. Open an existing event that you have access to;
3. Add a new event participant to that event and save;
4. Then navigate to the persons directory and look for the person created at step 3;
5. Create a case for that person;
6. Log in the mobile app with the same Default Surveillance Officer and sync everything;
7. Open the case created at step 7 and navigate to the 'Case events' tab;
8. Click to add an event and select the event from step 2;
9. Save everything and then navigate to the 'Event participants' tab of the event.

Actual behavior: The same person is now listed as event participant to the same event. After sync, this is also visible in the web app once without a resulting case and once with the resulting case.

Expected behavior: The person should be listed as an event participant to that event only once, and the case should be linked to that event participant after step 8.
