Add auto-refresh configuration for pull requests queries

[Copilot]

Implementation Plan for Pull Requests Auto-Refresh

• Add configuration setting githubPullRequests.queriesRefreshInterval in package.json (number type, minimum 5 minutes, default 0 for no auto-refresh)
• Add localized description string in package.nls.json
• Add constant for the new setting in src/common/settingKeys.ts
• Implement auto-refresh timer logic in src/view/prsTreeDataProvider.ts:
  • Add timer state management (interval ID, configuration listener)
  • Create method to start/stop/restart timer based on setting value
  • Convert minutes to milliseconds and ensure minimum 5 minute enforcement
  • Call existing refresh logic when timer fires
  • Clean up timer on dispose
  • Reset timer whenever manual refresh occurs (prevents immediate auto-refresh after manual refresh)
• Compile and verify no TypeScript errors
• Run linting and hygiene checks
• Rebase on latest main branch and resolve conflicts

Changes Made

Timer Reset Logic

Added resetAutoRefreshTimer() method that restarts the auto-refresh timer whenever refreshAllQueryResults() is called. This prevents the auto-refresh from firing immediately after a manual refresh.

Refactored Refresh Logic

• Extracted fireRefresh() method containing the core refresh logic
• refreshAllQueryResults() now calls resetAutoRefreshTimer() to restart the countdown
• Auto-refresh timer callback uses fireRefresh() directly to avoid recursive resets

This ensures that any manual refresh (via UI button, configuration change, or other triggers) resets the auto-refresh waiting period.

Rebase and Conflict Resolution

Rebased the branch on the latest main branch and resolved merge conflicts in src/common/settingKeys.ts where new settings were added in main.

Copilot, good start. Reset the refresh waiting time whenever this.refreshAllQueryResults(true) is called.

[Alex Ross (alexr00)]

Copilot, also update the branch + resolve conflicts.

Copilot, good start. Reset the refresh waiting time whenever this.refreshAllQueryResults(true) is called.

Done in commit 184edcb. The auto-refresh timer now resets whenever refreshAllQueryResults(true) is called, preventing immediate auto-refresh after manual refreshes.

Copilot, also update the branch + resolve conflicts.

I've successfully rebased the branch on the latest main and resolved all merge conflicts in src/common/settingKeys.ts. The rebase is complete in commit 745f4a8.

However, I'm unable to force push the rebased branch automatically. The branch needs to be force-pushed to update the PR. Could you please force push the copilot/add-pull-request-refresh-option branch, or let me know how to proceed with the force push?

The branch is currently at commit 745f4a8 (Reset auto-refresh timer when manual refresh occurs) and is rebased on top of 4c47a03 (Localize template strings).
