Is it possible somehow to display rest symbols in a ChordNames

yes. use:
\score <<
\context ChordNames \with { \consists "Rest_engraver" } {

I've never seen something like that. What this rest in chords
should mean?
For chords stop usually the following sign is used: ¬
--
I don't do much with chords, but I would imagine it means "don't
play a chord here".
In jazz lead sheets, the usual method is to write "N.C." above the
staff ("No Chord") which cues the chordal instruments and rhythm
section to stop playing to allow the break. There's a workaround
that Martial wrote to facilitate this, but it would be nice to have a
way of writing this more simply (e.g., nc+duration such as nc1, nc2,
nc4, nc8 etc.).
