tui: fix use-after-free after UI `stop` event #7922

ui_bridge:ui_bridge_stop() calls ui_detach_impl() last, so the check for
ui_active() in ui:ui_refresh() doesn't help: tui_main() already freed
the `ui` object.

There is a race between ui_bridge_stop (thread T0) and tui_main (thread T1).
UIBridgeData.stopped could be set while ui_bridge_stop() is in the
middle of loop_poll_events(), which may invoke tui_scheduler() on T0.
The pointers in tui_scheduler() may be invalid by then.

Solution(?): Use the `UI.data` field as a "stopped" flag and check it in
tui_scheduler().

        tui: fix use-after-free: swap in empty scheduler

        This should make life easier for UIs like VimR which implement their own
        in-process bridged UI: they don't need to worry that their `scheduler`
        might receive an invalid pointer.

        To avoid that, ui_bridge_stopped() swaps in an empty scheduler. Note
        that this requires the call to loop_poll_events() to be moved into the
        critical section.
