List threads #7

Describe the problem

Discord shows a list of threads you have been active in recently, below the room name. Variance only shows the thread that is currently opened here.

Describe the solution you'd like

As far as I know, Matrix does not have a concept of "active" or "closed" threads, so something that might work instead: list all threads that I have posted to and that had any kind of interaction during the past 48 hours. Maybe this could also be configurable.

I might have a shot at implementing this myself, but first wanted some discussion on what threads to display.

Another problem Variance does not yet solve is that Discord also has searchable list of all threads in the current room.

I generally think the way threads are displayed in Variance is great though! I like it much better than the column-layout of Element, and it's rather unfortunate the Cinny devs don't have any interest in supporting threads right now.
