Stefan Haller cf7c3d82e6 Run the repo switch on the UI thread
DispatchSwitchTo wrapped its whole body in WithWaitingStatus, so the
switch ran on a worker: it chdirs, reassigns gui.git, and swaps gui.State
(in resetState), all of which the UI thread also reads. The generation
guard prevents the refresh-in-flight logical corruption but not this
pointer data race on gui.State.

Run the switch synchronously on the UI thread instead. Every caller is
already a UI-thread handler except NewWorktreeCheckout, which must create
the worktree (git work) on a worker first; it now dispatches only the
switch via OnUIThread. The heavy data loading still happens
asynchronously via the refresh that onNewRepo triggers, so the
synchronous part is small (a couple of git rev-parse plus direnv).
