feat: Add files to the chat asynchronously (GUI)
Added asynchronous file addition to prevent UI freezing when adding multiple files.
I have a large codebase and this can take a few seconds. I find myself writing the prompt outside of aider to not have to wait.
Good idea. But why is adding a file slow? Can we fix that instead?
Adding so many or so big files that aider feels slow seems to be a bad idea in the first place IMHO. Not sure if we should fix or optimize for that.

since there is more interest in the UI now, I can look into it when I have some time 👍
