Stefan Haller 2c3a6acafa Thread a refreshEnv through the refresh scopes
Every refresh scope needs two ambient values to bounce its model and
view updates back to the UI thread safely: the background flag (which
picks the dispatch variant that doesn't count towards lazygit being
busy) and the repo generation that guards the bounce against a repo
switch. These were threaded separately — background as a parameter on
every refreshXxx function, generation re-read from the model inside each
one. Bundle them into a single refreshEnv passed through instead, so the
guard has a home to grow into (the next commit needs the generation in
refreshView, which currently has no access to it).

Capturing the generation once, at the start of the refresh, is also more
correct than the previous per-function re-read. The baseline should
reflect the repo whose inputs the refresh snapshotted (all captured up
front on the UI thread), not whenever each scope's worker happens to
wake. With the per-function read, a background refresh whose worker woke
after a repo switch would read the new generation and let its bounce
through, writing data computed from the old repo's inputs into the new
repo; capturing up front makes that bounce drop instead.

No behavior change for foreground refreshes, where the UI thread is held
for the whole refresh and the generation can't move under it.
