Describe the bug and reproduction steps

Terms searched for in prior bugs: editor wrong file editor content

When the agent is busy, and especially if it is also making changes to files, if the user clicks between files in the workspace quickly, eventually the editor get into a bad state where it will show the wrong file content when clicked into a particular file.

Repro:

• Put a few files into the workspace
• Ask the agent to work on some of them
• In UI, click between files quickly
• Notice that eventually an incorrect file content will be displayed for the wrong file, and the UI will "think" there's changed content in the browser for that file

Discard button has to be clicked to revert, might be related to https://github.com/All-Hands-AI/OpenHands/issues/4357

I've also noticed that doing this, all the files you click have the circle indicator beside them that indicates they have changed, even though the user hasn't done anything. CC @amanape

This is resolved in main because the UI does not allow editing anymore.
