[HOLD for payment 2023-06-28] Allow Mark as Read/Unread from LHN

[Gonals]

Problem: In NewDot, as opposed to most chat/messaging apps, in order to mark a conversation as read/unread, users need to actually open the chat. This is not a huge inconvenience on Desktop/web, but it can be on mobile. Our very own
@ted
has expressed a need for this feature so he can keep being a terrible friend on our platform too!

Solution: We now have a long-press menu on the LHN to Pin/Unpin chats! Let’s add another option to mark them as read/unread (the last message would be marked as unread)!

@Gonals This doesn't have an explicit price on the issue, so unless I hear otherwise I'll pay out @0xmiroslav the default $1000
