Earlier when a user narrowed to a new pm conversation, there was no
highlighted DM row entry in the left sidebar.
This commit introduces the feature to show highlighted pm thread in
the left sidebar for a new conversation. It adds narrowed dm to the
recent messages list if not already present.
It disappears from the sidebar if no message was sent and unnarrowed
from the DM.
Fixes: zulip#22769.
It doesn't make sense for us to track a separate current filter when
it should just the be filter of current message list if there is one.
This will reduce possible confusion in the codebase where filter
returned by narrow_state is different from message_lists.current.
Adds support in the web app for `dm` operator. This will deprecate
the `pm-with` operator, but existing links/URLs are still supported
for backwards-compatilibity.
This commit updates the web app default behaviors to default to
the new narrow/URLs `dm/...` and `/#narrow/dm/...` when navigating
and searching in the app.
There is some general clean up of references to private messages
or PMs to be either direct messages or DMs in these changes.
The general API changelog and documentation updates will be done
in a final commit in the series of commits that adds support for
the various new direct message narrows.
Incresase the max number of conversations shown when not zoomed
into the direct messages in the left sidebar to be 8 when there
are no unread conversations and 15 when there are unread
conversations.
Cleans up node test to use helper functions when setting a filter
and narrow state for private messages and when checking the return
value for `pm_list_data.get_list_info`.
Also, reduces the number of users in the test by creating more
group direct message conversations.
This lets us simplify the long-ish ‘../../static/js’ paths, and will
remove the need for the ‘zrequire’ wrapper.
