Allow connecting to more than one chat simultaneously #2

Currently you can have only one chat per websocket connection.

This is limited in internal/agent/agent.go where Agent struct holds single Chat.

On client, this currently works by connecting to new chat and disconnecting from previous one each time a different chat is clicked. But this prevents getting messages from other chats, although you can still show number of unread messages by invoking the unread count endpoint.

At the bottom it mentions a nice pattern. So you can have many chats this way with the one connection i think.
