[CRITICAL][HOLD for payment 2024-05-03][Track Expense] [$500] Allow the self-DM to show up within the 'Start Chat' participant selector

[thienlnam]

Right now, you can only find the self-DM via the global chat search. This is not entirely intuitive that you have to search for your email / you to find the self-DM this way.

Let's allow you to select the self-DM in the chat search and have it open up the self-DM
From the global create,

1. Click 'Start Chat'
2. Have the self-DM show up in the participant selector
3. When clicking on it, it opens up the self-DM

Note: You should not be able to add the self-DM to group
