fix(core): avoid blocking event loop during TUI PTY resize

When switching from inline mode to full-screen TUI (or during window
resize), the PTY resize operation reparsed ALL raw terminal output
through a new vt100 parser synchronously on the event loop. For tasks
with large output, this caused a noticeable hang.

Add `resize_async()` which moves the expensive reparse to a background
thread using a snapshot-and-replay pattern:
1. Quick snapshot of raw output (brief read lock)
2. Expensive reparse on background thread (no locks held)
3. Quick swap with replay of any new output (brief write lock)

A generation counter prevents stale resizes from overwriting newer ones.

Also combine two separate O(n) scrollback processing calls in inline
mode into a single pass.
