Stefan Haller fdb16a1c7e Preserve the focused main view's selection across commit rewrites
Dropping a hunk with `d` re-establishes the focused main view's selection
on the next surviving change, which feels great. But other operations that
rewrite the commit under the focused main view — moving a custom patch out
into the index, undoing right after a discard or a patch move — don't run
through the focused-main-view action handlers, so nothing was preserving
the selection. The stale gocui selection was left painted over the new
content, often as a large, now-meaningless range.

Rather than teach every such command to capture and restore the selection
(move-patch, undo, redo, and any future one), the focused main view now
preserves it itself, by its change-line ordinal, as the diff re-renders —
the command-agnostic counterpart of revealSelectionAfterPrimaryAction. The
diff side panels call it from their render-to-main before triggering the
render, so the restore rides the re-render.

It stands down unless the focused main view is current and shows a
selection, no precise restore is already pending (escape / post-stage
reveal / context-size place the selection more precisely), and the diff
command is actually changing. That last gate matters: a plain background
refresh re-renders the same commit's diff unchanged, and there the
selection — range and all — must be left alone; only a command change
(e.g. a rebase rewriting the commit's hash) means the content moved.
