Move slug fetch to background thread to prevent UI freeze

_fetch_my_slug() was making a synchronous HTTP request on the main thread
during tool selection, which froze the UI if the server was slow or
unreachable. Moved the /me call into StatusSyncWorker which already runs
in a background thread on page load. The slug is delivered via a
slug_fetched signal and the rate button re-evaluates when it arrives.
