Subject: [PATCH] left_sidebar: Fix ENTER key navigation in more conversations
 in DM list.

This commit addresses the issue where pressing the ENTER key on the
"more conversations" link in the direct messages list did not perform
the intended action by adding a `trigger-click-on-enter` class to the
element.

This allows the `process_enter_key` function to explicitly trigger a
click event on the element when the ENTER key is pressed, ensuring that
the associated click handler is called.
