Find a conversation with a specific person

Find a conversation with a specific person by profile URL or URN. Optionally returns messages from the found conversation (includeMessages: true). When following up on a previously listed conversation, extract the profile URL or URN from the earlier result and pass it here — do NOT ask the user to re-type the name.
