9199798a14 perf(right-sidebar): gate live effects, memoize lookups, always-mount tabs (#1674)
* perf(right-sidebar): gate live effects, memoize lookups, always-mount tabs

Performance fixes for the right sidebar (git/files/context tabs).

== Correctness / leak fixes (P0)

* RightSidebar: drop dead useEffect that re-nulled refs the resize
  handler already nulled; collapse the redundant width/minWidth/maxWidth
  triple into width + the existing --oc-right-sidebar-width variable.
* useUIStore: clamp setRightSidebarWidth to [MIN, MAX]; simplify
  setRightSidebarOpen (22 lines -> 12).
* RightSidebarTabs: useRightSidebarGitSync now takes the right tab and
  main tab and only polls when the right git tab is the visible consumer
  and the browser is online + visible. Replaces a global poll that
  fired for the lifetime of the open sidebar.
* GitView: commit-files fetch refactored to cancelled + Promise.all
  (was a per-hash loop that could setState after unmount); getRemoteUrl
  and refreshRemotes gated on cancelled/mountedRef; new module-scoped
  mountedRef guards setIsSettingIdentity from firing after unmount.
* GitView + useGitmojiList: extract gitmoji fetch/cache into a hook
  with module-level inflight promise + subscribers Set; stale-while-
  revalidate from localStorage; ensureLoaded() for call-site-initiated
  hydration; cancelled flag on setIsLoading to avoid the React
  setState-after-unmount race.
* ProjectNotesTodoPanel: 400 ms notes debounce now cancels on blur
  (was double-saving); persistProjectData chained per project through
  a module-level Map<projectId, Promise> so a fast todo toggle racing
  the debounced save no longer hits the server in parallel; resize
  auto-adjust guards against same-value pings.

== Render fanout (P1)

* RightSidebarTabs: all three tab content components are now always
  mounted with the hidden attribute. State and cache survive tab
  switches. When activeMainTab === 'git' (or 'context') the matching
  right tab is filtered out of the tab strip and a redirect effect
  snaps any persisted-but-now-hidden right tab to 'files'. onSelect is
  now a type-guarded handler instead of `as RightTab`.
* GitView: 13 separate useGitStore action selectors collapsed into one
  useShallow block (one re-evaluation per store change instead of 13).
* GitView: new isGitViewActive flag (true when this instance is the
  visible consumer) gates the 7 live effects — load identities, fetch
  remote URL, refresh remotes, ensureAll, sessionEvents.onGitRefreshHint,
  worktree bootstrap poll, default-identity auto-apply. Hidden
  GitView instances no longer run these.
* GitView: gitViewSnapshots module-level Map is now backed by an
  LRU wrapper (cap 20) so per-directory draft snapshots cannot leak
  across hundreds of project switches. Removed the dead `unique.set`
  dedup in changeEntries — GitStatus.files is already unique by path.
* SidebarFilesTree: statusByPath Map<path, FileStatus> and
  badgeByDir Map<dirPath, { modified, added }> are precomputed once
  per gitStatus change. Tree render is O(1) per node instead of O(N)
  per node via the previous per-row find/scan. badgeByDir walks each
  file's path segments and increments counters for every ancestor
  dir, so total cost is O(N + total_dirs_in_files) per gitStatus
  change.
* SidebarFilesTree: FileRow wrapped in React.memo with a custom
  comparator. Context-menu open state moved INTO FileRow as local
  state — opening a menu in one row no longer re-renders siblings.
* SidebarFilesTree: loadDirectory accepts an isCancelled predicate;
  the batch-load effect for expandedPaths passes a stable predicate
  so per-dir fetches stop touching state once the effect tears down.
* SidebarFilesTree: module-level fileTreeCacheByRoot Map (LRU,
  cap 8 roots) hydrates childrenByDir / loadErrorsByDir /
  loadedDirsRef on mount or root change. Mirror effects write state
  back to the cache. Survives close-and-reopen of the right sidebar;
  populated entries are dropped on unmount only when they had no
  data.

== Result

Net diff: 6 files modified, 1 new (useGitmojiList.ts), 682 insertions,
283 deletions. Existing test suite baseline preserved (537 pass / 58
fail / 1 error) — no new regressions. The 58 pre-existing failures are
in unrelated chat/streaming tests and were verified via git stash on
the same branch.

Architecture assumptions, verified by manual review:
- P1.1's redirect effect snaps rightSidebarTab to 'files' whenever
  activeMainTab === 'git', so the right and main GitView instances
  are mutually exclusive — isGitViewActive cannot be true for both.
- The 7 gated effects plus the useRightSidebar GitSync poll cover all
  cases where git state should advance: visible consumer fetches; the
  poll keeps the store warm when only the right git tab is visible.
- The aborted loadDirectory predicate is sufficient because
  inFlightDirsRef and loadedDirsRef dedup at the call site before
  any network IO is initiated.

* fix(sidebar): always clean up inFlightDirsRef regardless of cancellation

* refactor(sidebar): deduplicate RIGHT_SIDEBAR_MIN/MAX_WIDTH constants, export from useUIStore

* docs: split right sidebar perf plan into standalone file, clean up merged master status from chat plan

* fix(git): gate GitView effects by instance visibility

# Right Sidebar Performance Plan
## Status — DONE (PR #1674)
### P0 — Correctness / leak fixes
- [x] **RightSidebar**: drop dead `useEffect` that re-nulled refs the resize handler already nulled; collapse redundant `width`/`minWidth`/`maxWidth` triple into `width` + the existing `--oc-right-sidebar-width` variable.
- [x] **useUIStore**: clamp `setRightSidebarWidth` to `[MIN, MAX]`; simplify `setRightSidebarOpen` (22 lines → 12).
- [x] **RightSidebarTabs / `useRightSidebarGitSync`**: takes right tab + main tab; only polls when the right git tab is the visible consumer AND the browser is online + visible. Replaces a poll that ran for the lifetime of any open sidebar.
- [x] **GitView**: commit-files fetch refactored to `cancelled` + `Promise.all` (was a per-hash loop that could `setState` after unmount); `getRemoteUrl` and `refreshRemotes` gated on `cancelled` / `mountedRef`; new module-scoped `mountedRef` guards `setIsSettingIdentity` from firing after unmount.
- [x] **GitView + `useGitmojiList`**: extract gitmoji fetch/cache into a hook with module-level inflight promise + subscribers Set; stale-while-revalidate from localStorage; `ensureLoaded()` for call-site-initiated hydration; `cancelled` flag on `setIsLoading` to avoid the React setState-after-unmount race.
- [x] **ProjectNotesTodoPanel**: 400 ms notes debounce now cancels on blur (was double-saving); `persistProjectData` chained per project through a module-level `Map<projectId, Promise>` so a fast todo toggle racing the debounced save no longer hits the server in parallel; resize auto-adjust guards against same-value pings.
### P1 — Render fanout
- [x] **RightSidebarTabs**: all three tab content components now always mounted with the `hidden` attribute. State and cache survive tab switches. When `activeMainTab === 'git'` (or `'context'`) the matching right tab is filtered out of the tab strip and a redirect effect snaps any persisted-but-now-hidden right tab to `'files'`. `onSelect` is now a type-guarded handler instead of `as RightTab`.
- [x] **GitView**: 13 separate `useGitStore` action selectors collapsed into one `useShallow` block (one re-evaluation per store change instead of 13).
- [x] **GitView**: new `isGitViewActive` flag (true when this instance is the visible consumer) gates the 7 live effects — load identities, fetch remote URL, refresh remotes, `ensureAll`, `sessionEvents.onGitRefreshHint`, worktree bootstrap poll, default-identity auto-apply. Hidden GitView instances no longer run these.
- [x] **GitView**: `gitViewSnapshots` module-level Map is now backed by an LRU wrapper (cap 20) so per-directory draft snapshots cannot leak across hundreds of project switches. Removed the dead `unique.set` dedup in `changeEntries``GitStatus.files` is already unique by path.
- [x] **SidebarFilesTree**: `statusByPath` `Map<path, FileStatus>` and `badgeByDir` `Map<dirPath, { modified, added }>` are precomputed once per `gitStatus` change. Tree render is O(1) per node instead of O(N) per node. `badgeByDir` walks each file's path segments and increments counters for every ancestor dir.
- [x] **SidebarFilesTree**: `FileRow` wrapped in `React.memo` with a custom comparator. Context-menu open state moved INTO `FileRow` as local state — opening a menu in one row no longer re-renders siblings.
- [x] **SidebarFilesTree**: `loadDirectory` accepts an `isCancelled` predicate; the batch-load effect for `expandedPaths` passes a stable predicate so per-dir fetches stop touching state once the effect tears down.
- [x] **SidebarFilesTree**: module-level `fileTreeCacheByRoot` Map (LRU, cap 8 roots) hydrates `childrenByDir` / `loadErrorsByDir` / `loadedDirsRef` on mount or root change. Mirror effects write state back to the cache. Survives close-and-reopen of the right sidebar.
### Review fixes (post-review)
- [x] **Blocker**: `inFlightDirsRef` leak — removed `isCancelled` guard from `finally` so inflight flag always cleans up. Re-expanding a cancelled directory correctly retries.
- [x] **Non-blocker**: duplicate `RIGHT_SIDEBAR_MAX_WIDTH` — exported from `useUIStore`, imported in `RightSidebar`. Single source of truth.
- [x] **Non-blocker**: `useRightSidebarGitSync` poll gating — verified `shouldPoll` already includes `rightTab === 'git'`. No code change needed.

## Architecture notes
- The redirect effect snaps `rightSidebarTab` to `'files'` whenever `activeMainTab === 'git'`, so the right and main `GitView` instances are mutually exclusive — `isGitViewActive` cannot be true for both.
- The 7 gated effects plus the `useRightSidebarGitSync` poll cover all cases where git state should advance: visible consumer fetches; the poll keeps the store warm when only the right git tab is visible.
- The `loadDirectory` cancellation predicate prevents stale state writes in `try`/`catch`; the `finally` block always cleans up `inFlightDirsRef`.
## Out of scope (deferred)
- Virtualization of `SidebarFilesTree` (large refactor; current precomputed maps already address the main bottlenecks).
- Lazy plan titles (requires `openchamberConfig` schema changes).
- Extracting remaining sub-views from `GitView` (large refactor, not perf-critical).
