A pending reply is drawn by one module, PendingReply.tsx: its waiting or live header, its stream, and the lines about a wait, a busy provider, or a lost stream, until its finished record replaces it. MessageView uses it while a record is pending, and it follows the conversation the FollowedConversation context names, which ConversationView provides, so MessageView and BranchView no longer take pending and live slots and BranchRow no longer checks the status. The stream's part views get the pending record rather than a made-up one, and the model's name comes from MessageView alone. LiveAuthor.tsx, ReplyStream.tsx, and StreamingReply.tsx are gone. A conversation test streams a reply, then has its record arrive, and checks the time it thought carries over and its text shows once.
