zulip-terminal Add Recent Conversations Feature

Description of feature missing from another Zulip client

The current Zulip-Terminal lacks a "recent conversations" view, making it harder for users to quickly jump back into ongoing discussions. This feature would display the most recently active conversations for easier navigation.

CZO

When was this feature first available in Zulip? If you know:

Zulip version: (eg. 2.1, 5.0, 8.0, ..., or 'Zulip Cloud today') Zulip feature level: (see https://zulip.com/api/changelog)

@sahith-ch Thanks for filing this! We discussed this previously when it was 'recent topics', so I've combined some earlier discussion in the channel and linked this issue for now since I couldn't find another issue for it right now.

Hey @neiljp , I have already proposed a solution and raised a PR #1567 for the issue, can you please give your feedback on the solution

@sahith-ch I left feedback in the channel, since it may be easier to discuss there, and there's a lot of background discussion that I'm not sure if you've read?

Just a note that re the commits above, you only need to mark one commit as fixing the issue, and you can leave that for now until we reach a state where it's mergeable - otherwise we end up with lots of spam like the above to the issue :)

Thanks for the heads-up! Got it I’ll keep it to a single commit linked to the issue and hold off on further linking until the PR is merge-ready.
