fix(channels): eliminate N+1 query in get_channel_messages endpoint (#20458)

Replaced per-message user lookup with batch fetch using SQL IN clause.

Changes:
- Fetch all message user_ids in a single pass
- Use Users.get_users_by_user_ids() for batch lookup
- Build user mapping to avoid DB calls in loop
- Add early return for empty message lists

Performance: Reduces N+1 queries to 2 queries (messages + users)
