patch 9.1.1812: completion: flicker with slow LSPs

Problem:  completion: flicker with slow LSPs
Solution: Disable flushing the changed text (Girish Palya).

In insert-mode completion, the leader text is temporarily deleted while
searching for completion candidates. If the LSP server responds slowly,
the client may call `:sleep` to wait, which triggers `out_flush()`. This
causes the deleted text to briefly disappear before being redrawn when
results arrive, producing a visible flicker.

There are two possible fixes:

1. Suppress flushing while a user function (e.g. LSP client) is waiting.
2. Reinsert the deleted text before invoking the user function.

This Commit implements (1), which is the simpler solution, though somewhat
heavy-handed. If you think this may introduce unwanted side effects, I
can rework it to use (2).
