Description

The channel dropdowns on the sidebar are purely visual currently. The goal is to make these dropdowns interactive and functional, similar to how it works in Discord.

## 🎯Todos
- [ ] Modify [features/Chat/ChannelList.tsx](https://github.com/IndieCoderMM/convoz-chat/blob/dev/src/features/Chat/ChannelList.tsx) by creating trigger and dropdown items
- [ ] Implement functionality to open/close dropdown on clicks
- [ ] Add smooth transitions
- [ ] Use Tailwind CSS
- [ ] Make the dropdown accessible

Research direction

Start in src/features/Chat/ChannelList.tsx and inspect the existing sidebar channel markup. Implement clickable dropdown triggers and items with open/close behavior, smooth transitions, Tailwind CSS, and accessible interaction; done means the channel dropdowns are functional rather than purely visual.
