The sidebar refresh fired three /api/profiles/sessions calls (recents, cron,
messaging), and each one reopened every selected profile's state.db and re-ran
list_sessions_rich + session_count — ~3N DB opens/counts per refresh, on every
turn/broadcast/reconnect.
Add GET /api/profiles/sessions/sidebar: one pass that opens each profile DB
once and runs the three source-scoped queries together (recents scoped to the
active profile; cron + messaging cross-profile), returning the three windows in
one payload. Same read-only projection, 300s active heuristic, and caller-
supplied source taxonomy (recents_exclude / messaging_exclude / source=cron) as
the per-slice endpoint.
Renderer refreshSessions now makes one listSidebarSessions call and distributes
recents/cron/messaging to their stores (cron *jobs* stay a separate getCronJobs
API). Electron splices remote profiles per slice via fetchProfilesSessionSlice
(reusing the proven per-slice merge) so remote correctness is preserved; the
no-remote common case gets the single-open fast path.
