## Description
Adds the account-level `unread_count_for_filters` feature flag as the
dark-launch gate for filtered sidebar unread counts. This reuses the
deprecated `quoted_email_reply` flag slot, resets the reused bit for
existing accounts, and removes stale defaults so new accounts do not
reference the old flag.
This also adds the feature where we are now calculating the unread counts for built in filters like mentions, participating and unattended along with unread count for saved filters/folders.

## Description
* Added the ability to sort for 4 sub-sections under conversations
folders, teams, channels and labels.
* the sort options are basically created at, alphabetical and unread
counts along with both directions.
* for folders we don't have an unread count, so we sort it by only
created and alphabetical.
* all the sort preferences are stored on the frontend - easiest
implementation for now.
