Open threads in place - the duplicate side panel is gone

The right-hand thread panel repeated exactly what the flat timeline already
showed. Opening a thread now focuses the center pane itself: back control,
board state, the root message with its replies, board intervention
controls, and a thread reply composer - one conversation surface, never
two. The release contract also catches up with the icon shipping inside
the package, a pin the icon commit should have updated.
