* Replay the history a dismissal or a clear was still being written into
The popup files a replay reads are written by a serialized queue of shell
jobs, and the read ran as its own process alongside it. A dismissal issued a
moment earlier could still be queued when the directory was read, leaving the
notification out of the replay it was the newest entry of, and a clear issued
a moment earlier could still be queued too, replaying entries it was about to
remove.
The read now waits for the queue to go idle, so the replay shows the history
as of the moment it was asked for rather than whichever jobs happened to have
landed.

* Catch up on an update that arrived before its popup had a row
Watching a notification for in-place updates starts the moment it is handed
over, but the row those updates write to is inserted a tick later, deferred to
keep a mid-incubation Repeater from being mutated underneath. A client fast
enough to update inside that window found no row to write to, and a property
that has already changed does not change again — so the toast and its file sat
on the superseded content until something else moved.
The row is now refreshed from the live notification once it exists. That reads
the same object the signals would have, so an update that beat the insert is
picked up and one that did not costs nothing: a refresh whose content matches
the row it would write is dropped, which also collapses the several signals a
single multi-property update emits into one rewrite.

* Hold queued file work behind the replay's read, not just ahead of it
The read waited for everything queued before it, but nothing stopped the queue
from running on while it worked. A clear or an archive issued during the read
could delete or move files out from under awk mid-glob, so a replay could still
show a partial history — some of what a clear was in the middle of emptying.
The read is a barrier in both directions now: the queue holds until it exits,
and it releases on exit rather than on output, so a read that comes back empty
or fails cannot park the queue behind it.

* Queue the replay's read instead of waiting for the queue to empty
Waiting for the queue to go idle before starting the read still let work
overtake it. A clear or an archive enqueued after the replay was asked for,
while the current job was running, was dequeued the moment that job exited —
the read only starts once nothing is left — so the replay showed the state
after those jobs, which is the race this was meant to close. Unbroken file
traffic could postpone the read indefinitely for the same reason.
The read is now an entry in that queue rather than a process running beside
it. It takes its place in line behind the work queued before the request and
ahead of everything queued after, so no later job can overtake it and no
amount of traffic can push it back.
