ispyisail 956836458a Rebuild the project database once per load instead of once per table model ...

ProjectDBModel::setQuery() calls projectDataBase::updateDB(), which drops
and repopulates every table in the database. The rebuild does not depend on
the query, so each table model that queries the database while a project is
being read triggers another complete repopulate of the same content.
Opening a 100 folio project ran updateDB() 26 times, 9.9 s of a 15.7 s load.

Two changes, because the first alone is not enough:

setUpdateBlocked() lets a bulk operation suppress the rebuild and do it
once when it is done. readProjectXml() already wrapped the load in
blockSignals(true) "to avoid hundreds of unnecessary emitted signal", but
that suppresses only the signal, not the work it announces; this extends
the same intent to the work. Both early returns in readProjectXml() sit
before the block, so no path leaves the database permanently blocked.

Further rebuilds are triggered after readProjectXml() returns, where the
load phase timers cannot see them -- with only the block in place
updateDB() still ran 5 times on examples/industrial.qet. So the database
now also tracks whether anything has changed since the last rebuild, and
skips repopulating when nothing has. dataBaseUpdated() is still emitted in
that case: callers and models rely on it to refresh, and what they read
back is the same either way. Every method of the class that writes rows
marks the flag; from outside, the database is reachable only through
newQuery(), and all five call sites read.

Repeating the rebuild was wasteful rather than wrong -- each
populate*Table() begins with a DELETE -- so this changes no output.
Verified byte identical --info on all 23 example projects, and identical
--export-bom, --export-wires, --export-cables, --export-nets and
--export-wiring on industrial.qet. Its load drops from 5.51 s to 5.31 s
(median of 6).
