For a long time, we've had problems where diagnostics can end up showing
up inconsistently in different views. This PR is my attempt to prevent
that, and to simplify the system in the process. There are some UX
changes.
Diagnostic behaviors that have *not* changed:
* In-buffer diagnostics update immediately when LSPs send diagnostics
updates.
* The diagnostic counts in the status bar indicator also update
immediately.
Diagnostic behaviors that this PR changes:
* [x] The tab title for the project diagnostics view now simply shows
the same counts as the status bar indicator - the project's current
totals. Previously, this tab title showed something slightly different -
the numbers of diagnostics *currently shown* in the diagnostics view's
excerpts. But it was pretty confusing that you could sometimes see two
different diagnostic counts.
* [x] The project diagnostics view **never** updates its excerpts while
the user might be in the middle of typing it that view, unless the user
expressed an intent for the excerpts to update (by e.g. saving the
buffer). This was the behavior we originally implemented, but has
changed a few times since then, in attempts to fix other issues. I've
restored that invariant.
Times when the excerpts will update:
* diagnostics are updated while the diagnostics view is not focused
* the user changes focus away from the diagnostics view
* the language server sends a `work done progress end` message for its
disk-based diagnostics token (i.e. cargo check finishes)
* the user saves a buffer associated with a language server, and then a
debounce timer expires
* [x] The project diagnostics view indicates when its diagnostics are
stale. States:
* when diagnostics have been updated while the diagnostics view was
focused:
* the indicator shows a 'refresh' icon
* clicking the indicator updates the excerpts
* when diagnostics have been updated, but a file has been saved, so that
the diagnostics will soon update, the indicator is disabled
With these UX changes, the only 'complex' part of the our diagnostics
presentation is the Project Diagnostics view's excerpt management,
because it needs to implement the deferred updates in order to avoid
disrupting the user while they may be typing. I want to take some steps
to reduce the potential for bugs in this view.
* [x] Reduce the amount of state that the view uses, and simplify its
implementation
* [x] Add a randomized test that checks the invariant that a mutated
diagnostics view matches a freshly computed diagnostics view
## Release Notes
- Reworked the project diagnostics view:
- Fixed an issue where the project diagnostics view could update its
excerpts while you were typing in it.
- Fixed bugs where the project diagnostics view could show the wrong
excerpts.
- Changed the diagnostics view to always update its excerpts eagerly
when not focused.
- Added an indicator to the project diagnostics view's toolbar, showing
when diagnostics have been changed.
