Subject: [PATCH] Fix flat replies in DMs

DM replies were threaded under Adam's message instead of appearing flat.
Root cause: listener fell back to event["ts"] as thread_ts for new DMs,
causing say() to post as a threaded reply. Removed the fallback so DMs
always use flat messages with placeholder update.

Closes #4
