Stefan Haller cf89ef9d4f Preserve the change-line ordinal in the post-stage reveal
The reveal advanced the selection by capturing the next/previous change as a
patch identity and finding it again after the re-render. No line-number
identity is stable and unique across a stage, though: a deletion shares its
new-file number with the rest of its block (so staging one deletion of a block
landed back on the block's first line), and in the staged pane the new-file
number is the index, which staging/unstaging shifts (so unstaging a
modification's deletion missed its replacement line and fell back to an earlier
block). The previous worktree-line and adjacent-change-line matching each fixed
one case and left another.

Do instead what the staging view does: preserve the selection's ordinal among
change lines. Read the acted-on line's ordinal from the pane it was in before
the op; after the re-render, select the change line at that ordinal in the
target pane (clamped to the last). Since the op removes the acted-on change
line(s), that ordinal then holds the next surviving change — the next line of
the same block, or the next block when a whole block was staged. This needs no
reasoning about which side's line numbers are stable, so it handles deletions
and the staged pane uniformly.

The matching machinery (matchByWorktreeChange, AdjacentChangeLine) is gone; the
identity-matched restore (escape, -U preserve) and the new positional restore
now share installDiffLineRestore.
