Linear ticket: https://linear.app/stream/issue/REACT-1226/stability-and-performance-fixes

LLC PR: GetStream/stream-chat-js#1910

Fixes stability and render-performance issues in the channel list, channel previews, message rows and the SampleApp's offline start. Pairs with the stream-chat-js PR that fixes the client-side half of the channel list and pagination issues.

🛠 Implementation details

• f076efe12: Fixes an issue where a presence change re-rendered every channel preview containing that user (avatars and names included), although previews do not render presence. useChannelMembersState(channel, pick?) takes an optional pick that selects the member fields a consumer renders; the members object is only replaced when a picked field changes. The default preview hooks (useChannelPreviewDisplayName, ChannelAvatar, useIsDirectChat) pass their own picks. Without pick the hook behaves as before.
• 72b8fd705: Fixes an issue where opening the new-message screen and picking a user created the channel on the server before anything was sent. A draft channel has no id and is marked initialized, and <Channel> queried it on mount, which creates it. <Channel> now skips the mount query for a draft.
• 111785981: Fixes an issue in the SampleApp where a cold start while offline with a token provider failed to fetch a token, disconnected the user and never recovered. The SampleApp now sets persistUserOnConnectionFailure, and its token provider falls back to the last token it fetched for that user on a network error (the token is cleared on logout; HTTP errors still throw).
• 399be160a: Fixes an issue where opening or closing a thread re-rendered every message row in the channel. The message input context was rebuilt whenever the thread changed, and every row reads it. Nothing in that context depends on the thread any more, so the dependency is gone.
• cde3f4dc5: Fixes an issue where the channel list asked for a next page before its first page had loaded (an empty list reaches its end as soon as it renders). loadNextPage now does nothing until the list has been queried once.

Public API notes:

• useChannelMembersState gains an optional second parameter. Additive.
• useCreateMessageInputContext no longer takes threadInstance. Passing it in an object literal is now a TypeScript error.
