Elias Naur 759b796283 app: treat Invalidate more like InvalidateOp
Using Window.Invalidate for animation with, say

var w Window
var e FrameEvent

w.Invalidate()
e.Frame(...)

stops and immediately starts animation mode which is inefficient
and may cause jitter in the redraw timing.

InvalidateOp is the efficient and sure way to achieve smooth animation,
and Invalidate only exists for external events where there is nowhere to
add an InvalidateOp.

We can do better, so this change makes Invalidate almost as efficient as
InvalidateOp by checking for Invalidates at the same time we check for
InvalidateOps.

Note that we can't avoid the inefficiency in all cases, for example
when the calls above are swapped,

e.Frame(...)
w.Invalidate()

the Invalidate may not be registered before the check during Frame.

While here, add a note to Invalidate that it's meant for externally
triggered redraws.
