Research direction

No source file or test is named. Start by reproducing the issue with the BotFramework (Skype) driver using a group chat and an @mention, then trace how addressed messages are parsed and dispatched. Done means the bot responds to a proper @mention in a Skype group chat without regressing direct messages.
