Stefan Haller 73d7b443ec Render content-only when a task reads more lines into a view
Reading more lines into a lazy-loaded view (e.g. a diff being scrolled)
never changes the window layout, and after the first screenful it
doesn't even change the visible content - the new lines land below the
viewport, so the only thing that changes on screen is the scrollbar
thumb. Yet each read triggered a full render: a layout pass plus a
redraw of every view. On a slow terminal that full-screen repaint on
every read is a big part of why scrolling through a not-yet-fully-read
diff stutters.

Route the task's refresh through a content-only render instead. It
skips the layout pass and only redraws the views whose content changed,
leaving tcell's cell-level dirty tracking to emit just the cells that
actually differ (in the steady state, the scrollbar column).
