Subject: [PATCH] feat: add backend handling for unarchiving all chats

The previous implementation for unarchiving all chats in `ArchivedChatsModal.svelte` was inefficient, as it sent a separate request for each chat, which could potentially overload the server.

This commit introduces a new backend endpoint, `/chats/unarchive/all`, to handle the bulk unarchiving of all chats for a user with a single API call.

The frontend has been updated to use this new endpoint, resolving the performance issue by minimizing the number of requests to the server.
