fix: prevent chat history truncation during message operations
- Changed findMessageIndices to use exact timestamp matching instead of 1-second buffer - Added support for value field matching to handle message references correctly - Enhanced validation to prevent deletion of critical messages - Added proper error handling for edge cases when messages don't exist - Fixed issue where unrelated messages were being deleted due to timestamp proximity Fixes #6932
