Stefan Haller 494b9ce7cf Stage the selected diff line from the focused main view
The focused main view already lets you point at a diff line and act on it
(dive into staging, edit it, open it in a PR). This makes it a staging surface
in its own right: press space to stage — or unstage — the selected line without
diving into the separate staging view.

To make that usable, the selection is now shown automatically whenever the main
view holds a diff, anchored on the first change line already visible (so the
view doesn't jump), rather than being toggled on demand from the middle of the
view. That frees space for staging and means there's always a line to act on.
Which contexts show a diff is marked by a new types.DiffMainViewContext, because
"shows a diff" is the right signal, not "is stageable": reflog shows a diff (its
selection drives edit/PR/navigation) but can't be staged, while a branch's log
or the status dashboard show no diff and get no selection at all.

Staging is delegated to the side panel beneath via a GetOnStageFocusedMainView
handler mirroring GetOnClickFocusedMainView, so what "stage" means stays the
panel's concern (the working tree stages/unstages; commits will later add to a
custom patch). The files handler resolves the line's patch identity from the
diff-line metadata, maps it to a patch line, and applies a one-line patch,
choosing stage vs unstage from whether the shown diff is the unstaged or staged
side (diffSplitState).
