Refresh branch refs when cloning finishes.

startProjectClone returns before the background clone finishes, and the new project opens while cloning is still in progress. If usePaginatedBranches caches an empty result during that window, clone completion does not invalidate the cached refs. resolveWorktreeBaseBranchCandidate then remains null, so the automatic-selection effect does not seed the worktree base branch.

Refresh the branch refs when the clone reaches its completed state, or otherwise change the query target so that the ref query runs again.

Review comment at @apps/web/src/components/BranchToolbarBranchSelector.tsx
around lines 481 - 485:
Ensure branch refs are queried again when the background project clone
completes, so a cached empty result is replaced and worktree base-branch
selection can proceed. Update the clone-completion flow or the branch-ref query
target used alongside `usePaginatedBranches`; preserve the existing
`resolveWorktreeBaseBranchCandidate` selection logic.
