API Cursor Pagination Performance : conversations.list

从 slack_sdk.web.WebClient 中 conversations.list、chat.update 和 chat.postMessage 的入口点开始，然后检查游标分页和频道名称处理是如何提供的。该 issue 提出了多种可能的解决方案，因此完成标准是选择并明确 SDK 应直接解析名称、优化分页，还是统一消息方法，并通过测试覆盖所选行为。

The behavior characteristics and performance of iterating the cursor through conversations.list is truly awful when it is being used to resolve a channel name to a channel id.

For example, if I create a new channel in an org that's been around for a while, with limit=200, that channel is returned on page 135, and the pagination sequence takes 7m38.503s to resolve with 20 calls per minute (tier 2 rate limit).
When inspecting the responses, it can be seen that the channels returned never reach the limit count, and progressively diminish, eventually returning no results across cursors, sometimes 2, sometimes 10, etc., until finally resolving.

Please, either create a new class of methods that support resolving user or channel names directly to their IDs, or optimize the data that feeds the pagination to enable the methods to return valuable data earlier in the pagination sequence.

This is related to the last bullet under Just The Facts:

It's possible to receive fewer results than your specified limit, even when there are additional results to retrieve.

Note
This started when looking at chat.update and seeing that it required a channel id rather than a channel name (I tested it and it's not just a docs issue...). Rather than fixing the above situation, if you can align the chat.postMessage and chat.update methods to both accept a channel name, then that would satisfy my original problem. Though, the above deficiency will still exist. I've made a separate issue for this here.
