JinjingandOrca 6142ec1a06 Refresh AI Vault session list on window refocus (#7075)
* Refresh AI Vault session list when the window regains focus

Sessions started after the panel mounted never appeared until a manual
refresh, since the hook only scanned on mount and scope changes. Listen
for window focus and visibilitychange (to visible) while the panel is
mounted and trigger a non-force re-scan, letting the main process's 15s
scan cache rate-limit rapid focus flips. The manual refresh button keeps
its force (cache-bypassing) behavior.

* Keep AI Vault refocus refresh render-free on cache hits

Refocus refreshes now run as background: the loading flag stays down (no
spinner flash on every alt-tab back), and when the main process replays
the cached snapshot (same scope key + scannedAt) the state updates are
skipped entirely so nothing re-renders. Fresh scans and the manual force
refresh apply results exactly as before.

* Bypass AI Vault scan cache on panel entry and refocus, throttled

Non-force refreshes were served the 15s-old cached snapshot, so a
session started right before re-entering the panel or refocusing the
window still didn't appear — only the manual force refresh showed it.
Panel entry and refocus now request a force scan, throttled in module
scope to one forced scan per 5s (surviving panel remounts), so rapid
tab/focus flips still resolve from the main-process cache. Manual force
refreshes count against the throttle to avoid back-to-back full scans.

* Deliver AI Vault refocus via main-process signal; calm in-app triggers

Renderer DOM focus/visibility events never fire on macOS app activation
(verified live: document.hasFocus() stays true and no focus/blur event
lands when the window loses/gains OS focus), so the refocus refresh was
inert. Main now broadcasts browser-window-focus to the renderer as
aiVault:windowFocused and the hook subscribes to that instead.

Sessions started inside Orca (window never blurs) get their own trigger
from agent hooks: re-scan only when an unseen provider session id
appears in agent status. State transitions and message pings on known
sessions are deliberately ignored — keying on them made the panel churn
on every AI message. Event-driven rescans that land inside the 5s
throttle window defer to one trailing scan instead of being dropped.

Verified end-to-end against a dev instance: a headless claude session
appeared in the panel on OS-level refocus and another on panel
re-entry, without the manual refresh button.
