Pull request overview
This PR switches the PR-related tree views to manual checkbox state management to reduce checkbox flickering, and updates checkbox handling to optimistically update node state and refresh the tree.
Changes:
- Enable
manageCheckboxStateManuallyfor the PR list and PR changes tree views. - Rework checkbox update processing to update node state directly, collect directory descendants, and explicitly refresh affected parts of the tree.
- Change
markFilescalls to suppress viewed-state change events and refresh context after the API call completes.
