Follow-up to #1299: the per-pass bar still parked on one number while a
single long pass ran — on C-heavy repos that's the fn-pointer dispatch
pass, which sweeps every C/C++ file four times (typedefs, registrations,
field propagation, dispatch sites) and dominates the linking phase.
The pass now reports a real fraction of its dominant work
(scannedFiles / files×4, at the same per-16-files cadence as its
cooperative yield), and the orchestrator surfaces instrumented passes'
fractions as fractional steps, throttled to whole-percent movement so
the UI message volume stays bounded. The mechanism is opt-in per pass —
any synthesizer that a real repo shows parking the bar can adopt the
same callback.
Verified on the 1,342-file C repo from the report: the linking bar now
moves through 88→89→90 where it previously sat at 88 for the whole
pass; graph byte-identical (50,520 nodes / 148,232 edges).
