feat: name the operation the sync status pane is reporting

[darksworm]

The pane hardcoded field("Operation", "Sync", text). Argo CD gives a dry run and a resource-scoped sync the same phase and the same result rows as a full sync, so both read as Sync · Succeeded next to an app that is still OutOfSync — the wrong conclusion.

Now derived from the operation:

Operation	Pane reads
plain sync	Sync
dry run	Sync (dry run)
resource subset	Sync (partial)
dry run of a subset	Sync (dry run, partial)
app being deleted	Deleting

SyncOperation modelled only Revision, so dryRun and resources never survived the round trip; deletionTimestamp was unmodelled too.

Both qualifiers render in the same style for now — partial arguably deserves less emphasis than dry run, happy to split if you disagree.

Stacked on #276.

Summary by CodeRabbit

• New Features

  • Sync status views now identify the current operation, including deleting and syncing.
  • Dry-run and partial syncs display descriptive qualifiers.
  • Operation details are included in sync status data for improved visibility.

• Bug Fixes

  • Sync status no longer always displays a hardcoded “Sync” label when another operation is in progress.

Walkthrough

The change adds operation metadata to sync status details, derives labels for sync and deletion operations, qualifies dry-run and partial syncs, and renders the result in the sync-status pane. Tests cover API conversion and pane output.

Changes

Operation status reporting

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Operation metadata and derivation pkg/model/types.go, pkg/api/applications.go, pkg/api/applications_operation_label_test.go, pkg/api/applications_test.go	SyncStatusDetails now stores an operation and optional note. Application metadata and sync operations provide deletion, dry-run, and resource-scope data. ConvertOperationState derives Sync or Deleting labels and the applicable qualifiers.
Sync-status operation rendering cmd/app/view_pane.go, cmd/app/view_pane_operation_test.go	The pane renders the derived operation, defaults an empty operation to Sync, and appends non-empty notes. Tests cover plain sync, deletion, dry-run, and qualified output.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 50166

Applications deleted without an operation phase can still display as never synced rather than Deleting, obscuring their current lifecycle state. This should be fixed and covered before merge.

647-649: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Handle deletion before the empty-phase early return.

When DeletionTimestamp is set but OperationState.Phase is empty, ConvertOperationState returns nil before calling describeOperation. cmd/app/view_pane.go then displays “This application has never been synced.” instead of Deleting. Add a deletion-specific conversion path before this guard and test an application with an empty operation phase. Ensure zero timestamps do not produce misleading time fields.
