2. **Clicking another hunk keeps hunk mode.** A pre-existing wart (inherited from staging/patch-building):
once in hunk mode, clicking another change line reset to a single line. Now a click on a change line while
in hunk mode re-selects that whole block; a click on context — or any click when not in hunk mode — drops
to a single line. The two click handlers (`onClickInAlreadyFocusedView`, `onClickInOtherViewOfMainViewPair`)
shared an identical selection body, so they were unified into one `selectClickedDiffLine` helper and the
change made once. The decision keys off the **current** select mode (preserve hunk), not the config
(which only seeds the *initial* mode on focus) — the two compose. Commit `ac7ab0650`.

3. **First cross-pane click dropped hunk mode.** Clicking the *other* main pane (the staged
side you weren't focused on) selected a single line the first time even in hunk mode, because that pane's
`DiffSelectState` was still its default until it had been focused once — tabbing to it and back was the
workaround the user found. Fix: `onClickInOtherViewOfMainViewPair` now copies the leaving pane's
`DiffSelectState` to the clicked pane before `selectClickedDiffLine` runs, so the very first click there
behaves like every later one. (The two panes keep independent select state; this seeds the target.)
