fix(discussions): emit CSLP_TAGS_UPDATED after variant switch so comment icons mount at correct positions

[karancs06]

Problem

When the user switches variants in the Visual Editor, the iframe's CSR (client-side rendered) app receives the new variant and asynchronously re-renders, mutating every data-cslp attribute in the DOM from the base CSLP format (content_type.uid.locale.field) to the variant format (v2:content_type.uid_variantId.locale.field).

The Visual Editor's DiscussionPage watches the variantId change and immediately calls highlightCommentsOnCanvas, which calls highlightCommentIconOnCanvas for each active discussion field path. That function:

1. Queries [data-cslp="${fieldPath}"] to find the target element
2. Reads its getBoundingClientRect() to place the icon at position: fixed

Race condition: When the visual editor fires highlights the iframe DOM has not yet settled — the data-cslp attributes still carry the old values. Two failure modes result:

• Base → Variant: The icon is mounted against the stale base CSLP element. After the DOM re-renders to variant CSLP the element that was used as an anchor has a different or no data-cslp value; subsequent scroll events call updateHighlightedCommentIconPosition, which silently skips any icon whose target is now missing, leaving the icon permanently drifted.
• Variant → Base: The icon's 15-retry × 60 ms window (900 ms) expires before the iframe finishes switching back to base CSLP values. The icon never appears.

Solution

1. updateVariantClasses — onSettled callback (useRecalculateVariantDataCSLPValues.ts)

updateVariantClasses already uses a MutationObserver to re-apply variant CSS classes as data-cslp attributes change. We extend it to accept an optional onSettled callback that fires once the DOM has settled:

• scheduleSettled() — called inside the MutationObserver callback after each batch of mutations; starts/restarts a CSLP_SETTLED_DEBOUNCE_MS (200 ms) debounce timer. When no further mutations arrive within the window the callback fires.
• Fallback timer — CSLP_SETTLED_FALLBACK_MS (1 500 ms) ensures onSettled always fires even when no mutations are observed (e.g. SSR-hydrated pages that have already settled by the time the observer attaches).
• hasSettled flag — guarantees the callback is invoked exactly once regardless of whether the debounce or the fallback fires first.

// Excerpt — useRecalculateVariantDataCSLPValues.ts
export function updateVariantClasses(onSettled?: () => void): void {
    let hasSettled = false;
    let settledTimer: ReturnType<typeof setTimeout> | null = null;

    const fireSettled = () => {
        if (hasSettled) return;
        hasSettled = true;
        if (settledTimer !== null) { clearTimeout(settledTimer); settledTimer = null; }
        onSettled?.();
    };
    const scheduleSettled = () => {
        if (hasSettled) return;
        if (settledTimer !== null) clearTimeout(settledTimer);
        settledTimer = setTimeout(fireSettled, CSLP_SETTLED_DEBOUNCE_MS);
    };
    setTimeout(fireSettled, CSLP_SETTLED_FALLBACK_MS); // guaranteed delivery
    // ...inside MutationObserver callback after updateElementClasses():
    scheduleSettled();
}

2. useVariantFieldsPostMessageEvent — send CSLP_TAGS_UPDATED signal (useVariantsPostMessageEvent.ts)

The GET_VARIANT_ID handler now passes the settled callback through:

if (isSSR) {
    if (selectedVariant) { addVariantFieldClass(selectedVariant); }
    // SSR: DOM is synchronously in its final state — signal immediately
    visualBuilderPostMessage?.send(VisualBuilderPostMessageEvents.CSLP_TAGS_UPDATED);
} else {
    // CSR: wait for the user's framework to finish re-rendering
    updateVariantClasses(() => {
        visualBuilderPostMessage?.send(VisualBuilderPostMessageEvents.CSLP_TAGS_UPDATED);
    });
}

The new CSLP_TAGS_UPDATED = "cslp-tags-updated" postMessage event constant is added to postMessage.types.ts.

3. Orphan cleanup in updateHighlightedCommentIconPosition (generateHighlightedComment.tsx)

Previously, when updateHighlightedCommentIconPosition processed a scroll/resize event it silently skipped any .highlighted-comment icon whose [data-cslp] target element was no longer in the DOM — leaving permanently drifted icons after a variant switch.

// Before: silently skipped
if (targetElement) {
    icon.style.top = ...; icon.style.left = ...;
}

// After: remove orphaned icon; visual editor re-mounts after CSLP_TAGS_UPDATED
if (targetElement) {
    icon.style.top = ...; icon.style.left = ...;
} else {
    icon.remove();
}

The visual editor re-mounts all icons fresh when CSLP_TAGS_UPDATED arrives, so removing orphans here is safe.

Tests added

File	Coverage
useRecalculateVariantDataCSLPValues.spec.ts (new)	Fallback fires at 1 500 ms; not before 1 499 ms; fires exactly once even if called twice; no-op when no callback
useVariantsPostMessageEvent.spec.ts	CSLP_TAGS_UPDATED sent immediately for SSR (variant/null); updateVariantClasses called with callback for CSR; CSLP_TAGS_UPDATED sent when callback fires
generateHighlightedComment.test.ts (new)	Position update when target exists; orphan removal; mixed (valid + orphan); empty DOM no-throw; removeAllHighlightedCommentIcons

Checklist

• Race condition (base→variant and variant→base) eliminated
• SSR apps receive the signal synchronously (no unnecessary wait)
• onSettled fires exactly once (idempotency guard)
• All existing tests pass
• New unit tests added for every changed code path
