 * List Conversation History

 * Fetch top-level messages from a channel, DM or group DM, newest first (thread replies need Get Thread Replies). A bot token (channels:history) can read public channels the app is in. Private channels, DMs and group DMs need a user token from someone in them, with groups:history, im:history or mpim:history. Paginate with `response_metadata.next_cursor`.
