Stefan HallerandClaude Opus 4.8 4acfc88065 Replace the BLOCK_UI refresh mode with a BatchUIUpdates flag
BLOCK_UI ran the whole refresh on the UI thread and parked it in a
wg.Wait for the duration, so the UI (and its spinner) froze while the
git work ran. Blocking the UI was never the point — the point was to
apply all the scopes' updates in one frame instead of a per-scope
cascade — and if we genuinely wanted to block input it should span the
whole operation, not just its refresh, which needs a gocui-level
mechanism we don't have.

So drop the mode and add a BatchUIUpdates option that achieves the
"one frame" effect without blocking: each scope's UI-thread bounce is
collected into a shared refreshBounceBatch during the refresh, and once
every scope has finished they're all applied inside a single OnUIThread
task. gocui drains every queued event before it redraws, so one task
means one repaint. The refresh itself now runs SYNC — on a worker when
issued from one (checkout, move-to-new-branch, the rebase-edit result
handling), so the UI thread stays live and the spinner keeps animating.

The batch needs a mutex because the scopes add concurrently from their
worker goroutines, and a closed flag so that any bounces enqueued after
the flush starts — the nested ones a flushed bounce produces in turn,
e.g. scrolling the selection into view — are dispatched immediately as
ordinary follow-ups rather than collected into a batch that nothing
will drain.
