Fixes #331

What changed

• The thread kept two identical self-ticking timers: ElapsedTimer in background-status-pill.tsx and a private WorkingTimer in working-indicator.tsx. A fix to one never reached the other.
• There is now one component in elapsed-timer.tsx. The background status pill, the working indicator, and running-footer.tsx all import it.
• No behavior change. Same text-node updates, same one-second cadence.

Testing

• New elapsed-timer.test.tsx asserts that the timer renders its elapsed text in tabular figures.
• bun run typecheck, bun test components app lib, and bun run lint run clean (the known ghostty-web WASM baseline failure aside).

Thanks for this. Before we can merge, please add a before/after screenshot or a short screen recording of the change working in the running app (the issue asks for one), plus a line on how you tested it.

Screenshots from the running app:

Running footer timer — before / after:

Working line timer — before / after:

The refactor keeps the behaviour: both places render the same self-ticking elapsed label, so the captures match before and after. The working line reads "Working for 50s · Editing gateway/routes.ts" in both.

How I tested it: I ran the app and captured the two timer surfaces (background-status-pill on the session lab page and the real WorkingIndicator). bun test components passes except the known ghostty-web baseline failure. Typecheck and lint are clean.

Merged, thanks @tianxingjian2406! One timer instead of two is much tidier.
