Hi @nateGeorge, thank you for the PR, I think it would make sense instead of adding 4 more properties into Channel struct to add real name of the IM or MPIM name into Name then. This way the implementation and interface should be cleaner.
Also please separate docs PR from feature PR because they seem to have different purpose.

This PR includes two improvements to DM and group DM support:
Documentation: Clarifies that DM messages require channel IDs starting with D (not @username format) and documents how to mention users with <@USER_ID> format. Includes examples for finding DM channel IDs and user IDs.
Feature: Adds userId, userName, members, and memberNames fields to the channels_list CSV output for IM and MPIM channels, making it easy to identify which user(s) each DM/group DM is with. This resolves the issue where DM channels were listed without any indication of who they were with.
