Description
Feature Request
We already have a sidebar menu item for favourites. So let's add "unread messages" underneath!
This is related to, and maybe an easy way to fix: https://github.com/nextcloud/mail/issues/2433 and https://github.com/nextcloud/mail/issues/679
(+) easy to understand for users
(+) maybe easier to implement than other filterbar solutions that have been discussed
(+) In my personal workflow I often want to look at unread mails only, this would make that possible. It will also make it easy to search in unread mails.
(-) it is then not possible to filter by unread and starred mails.
Potentially you could also add "has attachment" as a menu item.

Research direction
Start by reviewing how the existing favourites sidebar item works, then read related issues #2433 and #679 and compare the requested behaviour with the mockup. Done should mean an "unread messages" item appears beneath favourites and provides a way to search unread mail; the optional attachment item is not required.
