Matt Toohey 4f529a45f2 fix(desktop): prioritize sidebar channel status (#6861)
## Summary

- Treat the sidebar temp-channel icon as a fallback behind working,
mute, numeric unread, and thread-unread indicators.
- Keep the header affordance and the sidebar temp icon when it is the
only row status.
- Extend the ephemeral-channel browser scenario across working, idle,
collapsed-sidebar, and unread states.

## Before / After

| Before: five temp icons compete with duration and unread states |
After: all five duration and unread states remain clear |
| --- | --- |
| ![Before: five long temporary channel rows each show a temp icon, long
duration, and unread
state](https://d24qwcpro867f5.cloudfront.net/repos/buzz/prs/6861/temp-icon-before-five.png)
| ![After: the same five long temporary channel rows retain long
durations and unread states without temp
icons](https://d24qwcpro867f5.cloudfront.net/repos/buzz/prs/6861/temp-icon-after-five.png)
