A scan went stale on any catalog change anywhere (a background import,
a rating elsewhere), and folder.synchronize then scanned again inline:
on the UI thread, and acting on results the person never saw. A scan
now stays current while the folder's own photos are the same records
(Session::take_folder_changes compares them by identity). The dialog
asks with `scanned: true`, which refuses a stale scan instead of
redoing it; the dialog then stays open and scans again in the
background. Agents that just call folder.synchronize still get a fresh
scan.
The app dropped session.folder_changes every frame no dialog was open,
so an agent's folder.scanChanges never reached its folder.synchronize
in the running app; it now only lets go of a scan its dialog made.

A file only browsed in Local was counted as already in the library and
silently dropped; it is now new, and synchronizing brings it into the
library, as an import does.
A photo whose file was renamed or moved within the folder showed as
missing while its file counted as a skipped duplicate, so "Remove
missing" sent the photo and its edits to Recently Deleted and imported
nothing. The scan now matches a missing photo's content hash among the
folder's files and lists it as moved; synchronizing relinks it (on by
default, "Relink photos whose file was renamed or moved"), in the same
undo step.

A folder that isn't there (moved whole, or on a disk that isn't
connected) used to scan as "every photo missing", one tick away from
moving a whole disk to Recently Deleted. The scan (on its worker, so an
asleep share never stalls the UI) now reports it as offline and both
commands refuse it; the dialog says so. A whole disk or a folder holding
disks needs `disk: true`, as Remove Disk from Library does; the disk rows
pass it.

folder.scanChanges keeps its result in the session; folder.synchronize
uses it (once) while it is of the same folder and the catalog has not
changed since, so a scan made on a worker thread is not repeated on the
UI thread and files that arrive after the dialog was shown are left for
the next synchronize. Otherwise it scans again.

A scan compares a library folder (and the folders inside it) with the
disk without changing anything: new files (the import scan's duplicate
rules), missing photos (the Missing Photos rule) and metadata updates
(XMP sidecars saved after the photo came in or was last edited here
that say something the library doesn't). It runs without the session
(SyncInput + scan_with) so the app can scan on a worker thread.
folder.synchronize imports the new files in place and, when asked,
moves missing photos to Recently Deleted and reads the updated
sidecars, all as one "Synchronize Folder" undo step. Only folders the
library holds photos in are accepted, never the startup disk.
