Saxon Fletcher d0135231fb chore(studio): improve assistant feed performance (#50888)
## Problem

Assistant conversations with multiple query and Edge Function blocks
repeatedly render expensive content while streaming. Scrolling past the
feed boundary can also move the surrounding layout.

## Solution

Memoize unchanged messages, blocks, and code highlighting; batch
streaming UI updates; and skip off-screen query layout while keeping
block state mounted. Preserve streamed status updates and contain
scrolling in the message viewport. The changes are shared by Next and
TanStack.

## Review instructions

1. Compare the base branch and this branch using the same saved
conversation containing 10–20 query, result/chart, and Edge Function
blocks. Keep the browser, viewport, and conversation identical.
2. In Chrome DevTools, record Performance with 4× CPU throttling while
streaming a follow-up, typing in the composer, and scrolling through the
feed. Compare scripting/layout time and long tasks. React DevTools
Profiler should show unchanged completed blocks avoiding renders during
subsequent text updates.
3. Scroll away from query blocks and return. Confirm results, display
settings, selections, and controls retain their state. Run a read-only
query such as `select 1` and check its results still update.
4. Confirm “Thinking…” finishes, Stop retains the latest streamed text,
and approval/skip, copy, edit, and branch actions still work. Repeated
scrolling at the feed boundary must leave the outer layout/composer
stationary; jump-to-latest and following new messages should still work.
5. Repeat in both runtimes: `STUDIO_FRAMEWORK=next pnpm dev:studio` and
`STUDIO_FRAMEWORK=tanstack pnpm dev:studio`. Also check the assistant
sidebar, which shares the feed.

## Validation

- 170 assistant/Explorer tests and one shared CodeBlock test passed;
formatting and Studio lint passed (two existing warnings).
- Browser checks covered both route entry points, viewport
state/geometry, and scroll behavior.
- Review fixes: 23 focused tests, lint, formatting, and full Studio
typechecking passed. Full production builds were not verified.

Supabase UI Patterns

This package should be used for components which are built using NPM libraries (react-markdown, reactflow for example), which make no sense to be included in all apps. It should also be used for components which are constructed using various components from the ui package.

This package does not have a barrel file - each component has to be imported from its index (ui-patterns/PrivacySettings, for example). This is intentional so that adding a new component which is used only in 1 or 2 apps doesn't burden the rest of the apps.
