grabowski 979b69960f Show a busy window while the solve runs
On OK the dialog closed and nothing appeared until the figures did,
which on a real board is minutes of looking like the plugin did
nothing. Put a small always-on-top window up for that stretch: the
stage now running, elapsed seconds, and Cancel.

Qt only repaints while the event loop runs and the solve owns the
thread, so the window pumps events itself - from inside the CG/AMG
iteration callback, which is where the time actually goes. That is
also where Cancel is noticed. The state is module-level because the
tick happens several frames deep in scipy/pyamg, and threading a
handle through those signatures for a progress bar is not worth it;
it stays inert until start(), so the standalone runner and the tests
are unaffected.

The window covers the figure work too, not just the solve: laying out
labels and writing four PNGs at full DPI is seconds on a real board -
10-15 of them on a large one - and closing before that left the same
silent gap one step later.

"""Top-level orchestration for the KiCad-launched action.
Flow: connect -> read the two selected contacts (rectangles/pads) ->
gather fills -> selection dialog (net, layers, contacts, current, cell)
-> extract vias -> solve -> figures + report.
Every failure is reported twice: on stdout (lands in the KiCad status-bar
warning list) and as a matplotlib error figure, so it cannot be missed.
