Message thread appearance

[kentcdodds]

Test Plan

1. Navigate to a recipient's message page.
2. Verify that past and scheduled messages appear in a single, continuous scrollable list.
3. Confirm that scheduled messages are displayed with blue chat bubbles.
4. Check that scheduled messages include a "Scheduled for [Date]" label and inline controls (save, send now, edit, delete).
5. Verify the empty state message and "Create a new message" link appear correctly when no messages exist.
6. Test the "Load earlier messages" functionality if applicable.

Note

Medium Risk
Changes both UI composition and server-side filtering for the recipients message thread; main risk is regressions in pagination/scroll behavior and incorrect timezone/date-boundary filtering.

Overview
Unifies past and scheduled recipient messages into a single scrollable thread, restyling scheduled messages as blue chat bubbles with inline actions (save edits, send now, edit, delete) and updating empty-state copy/behavior.

Replaces the single date filter with a startDate/endDate range in SearchBar and the recipient loader, applying optional sentAt bounds with timezone-safe parsing.

Tweaks recipients-page theming/layout (recipient routes force a white background/header border and remove the sub-nav), moves @types/bun to devDependencies, and updates Playwright e2e tests to match the new inline composer/thread UI.
