Add localStorage persistence for Direct Messages page to remember and restore the last selected conversation when user returns to the page.
Changes:
- Save selected conversation to localStorage when user selects a conversation
- Restore last conversation on page load (if no URL parameter provided)
- Clear localStorage when user returns to empty state
- Updated README.md with persistence documentation
- Priority: URL parameter > localStorage > empty state
This improves UX by maintaining conversation context across page navigation, similar to how the main page remembers the selected channel.

Added two new HTTP endpoints to meshcore-bridge for managing pending contacts
(contacts awaiting manual approval when manual_add_contacts mode is enabled):
New endpoints:
- GET /pending_contacts - List all pending contacts awaiting approval
- Parses meshcli output format: "Name: <hex_public_key>"
- Returns JSON array with {name, public_key} objects
- Includes raw_stdout for debugging
- POST /add_pending - Approve and add a pending contact
- Accepts JSON body: {"selector": "<name_or_pubkey>"}
- Validates selector is non-empty string
- Executes meshcli add_pending command via persistent session
Additional changes:
- Added curl to mc-webui Dockerfile for testing endpoints
- Updated README with Testing Bridge API section
- Included example curl commands and expected responses
Implementation notes:
- Uses existing MeshCLISession.execute_command() - no new processes
- Same persistent session and command queue architecture
- Consistent error handling with existing /cli endpoint
Enables future UI for manual contact approval workflow.

Two improvements to DM functionality:
1. Removed DM button from message blocks in channel view
- Users should use the DM page directly instead
- Cleaner UI without redundant buttons
2. Filter only CLI (client) contacts in DM dropdown
- Added filter_types parameter to parse_contacts()
- get_contacts_list() now returns only CLI contacts
- Repeaters (REP), rooms (ROOM), and sensors (SENS) are excluded
- You can't send DMs to repeaters anyway!
Updated README.md to reflect these changes.

1. Existing conversations (with history) first
2. Separator: "--- Available contacts ---"
3. All contacts from device who aren't in conversations yet
- Users can now start new DM conversations with any contact
- Updated README.md with new DM workflow description

meshcli contacts output
- Created /api/contacts endpoint to retrieve contact names from device
- Modified frontend app.js to fetch and cache contacts list on page load

sender is in contacts list

- Bridge gets USB device, main app uses HTTP only
- Modify Dockerfile
- Remove meshcore-cli installation from main app
- Lighter image without gcc dependencies
