fix(@desktop/chat): channel links sends to main public channel instead of a channel in that community

In case clicked channel:
- exists in a community -> the app will switch you to it
- doesn't exist in a community, but exists in the public chat list -> the app
  will switch to `Chat` section and also to the appropriate channel there
- doesn't exist in a community and doesn't exist in the public chat list -> the app
  will switch to `Chat` section and join new channel

Fixes: #3489
