user feedback when dispVM is opening

[redshiftzero]

we open files in dispVMs, and opening them can take some time - a few seconds.

users can also accidentally grind their workstation to a halt by opening too many DispVMs at once (indeed, I just did this)

we need to:

• disable the Open button after it is clicked for a few seconds
• provide some instant user feedback so that users know activity is happening

NOTE: I'm starting to spec things in Gherkin, and the below is from that spec. Anything named with a capital letter will be referenced in a different Story. The Gherkin Sandbox file may also be cross-referenced for clarity.

Scenario: Journalist opens 1 file
Given I'm a logged in Journalist
When I click “Open” on a file
Then I see the Activity Indicator animate
And I see a message display in the Status Bar that says “Qubes is launching a new Disposable VM...”
And that message will show for no less than 1 second.
And I see a non-modal dialog that says “Qubes is launching a new Disposable VM to securely view your file” in bold text, and “Hint: To keep Qubes running well, try not to have more than a few VMs running at once.” in a second line of text that is not bolded.
And that dialog will display for no less than 2 seconds.
And when the Disposable VM has fully launched, the dialog will automagically disappear.
And I see a message display in the Status Bar that says “...opening file in [disp-VM].
And in the aforementioned Status Bar message, the specific Disposable VM is named in the brackets, as well as bolded.

At minimum, I think we'd want to have an "Opening" active state for beta. I don't think we have this in Zep-lin yet, and we do need to decide how it fits in the Files panel & whether the filename stays visible. Adding "blocked on UX" label for now until we resolve.

Ok, this is on me. I was just about to report this as a bug, but now its back on my radar. Yeah, I'd assumed I'd crashed the disp-VMs from launching, but peeking over to my Qubes laptop, now see it just took for-ev-er.

When clicking around multiple sources, it seems like there should be a spot outside the Conversation pane to indicate that files are being worked on getting opened. Brain is going back to the "Briefcase" area of the top bar. Chin is being rubbed.

Commenting w/ video recorded from Figma to demonstrate. Spinner would be set to auto-cancel after ~30sec or so. However long we feel isn't too long but is long enough, for the toast messages to at least begin; unless the spinner could be set to cancel after the disp-vm can be confirmed to be opening, by sd-app.

Asset for this lives in the Design System file.
