Describe the bug
__init__ of class Message fails when the message is sent from a group channel. The message attempts to get the server from the state but since the group channel does not belong to a server it fails with a KeyError.

To Reproduce

import asyncio
import aiohttp
import revolt

class Client(revolt.Client):

    async def on_message(self, message: revolt.Message):
        ...

async def main():
    async with aiohttp.ClientSession() as session:
        client = Client(session, "token")
        await client.start()

asyncio.run(main())

Traceback

Task exception was never retrieved
