Stefan Haller 8580c78cc0 Derive sync vs async refresh from the calling thread
Whether a refresh should block or run in the background was controlled
by the Mode field, but that always lined up with the calling thread: a
UI-thread Refresh must not block the UI, while a RefreshFromWorker runs
on a worker where blocking is exactly what we want. Now that Then and
BatchUIUpdates work regardless of that choice, drop Mode from the
decision and key it off calledFromWorker instead:

  - Refresh (UI thread) runs its scopes and the finishing step (wait,
    batch flush, Then) on workers, so the caller returns immediately —
    what ASYNC used to mean.
  - RefreshFromWorker runs them on the calling worker, blocking it until
    everything is done — what SYNC used to mean.

Demos keep taking the blocking, inline path so everything still lands in
one deterministic frame.

In practice this flips the handful of RefreshFromWorker calls that
passed ASYNC — they now block their worker until the refresh finishes,
keeping the waiting-status spinner up until the UI actually updates —
and the many UI-thread refreshes that defaulted to SYNC, which no longer
freeze the UI thread while the git work runs. Mode now only feeds the
log line; the next commit removes it.
