Remove invalidatable type and all associated calls. All items can
directly invalidate the UI.

The Invalidatable struct is designed so that a widget can have a
callback function ran when it is Invalidated. This is used to cascade up
the widget tree, marking things as Invalid along the way so that only
Invalid widgets are drawn. However, this is only implemented at the grid
cell level for checks if the cell is invalidated -- and the grid cells
are never set back to a "valid" state. The effect of this is that no
matter what is invalidated, the entire UI gets drawn again.
The calling through the Invalidate callbacks creates *several* race
conditions, as Invalidate is called from several different goroutines,
and many widgets call invalidate on their parent or children.
Tcell has optimizations to only rerender screen cells that have changed
their rune and style. The only performance penalty by redrawing the
entire screen for aerc is the operations *within the aerc draw methods*.
Most of these are not expensive and have relatively no impact on
performance.
Skip all of the OnInvalidates, and directly invalidate the UI when
DoInvalidate is called by a widget. This reduces data races, and
simplifies the widget redraw logic signficantly.

Many Drawable implementations have their own Invalidate and OnInvalidate
functions, with an unexported onInvalidate field. However OnInvalidate and
Invalidate are usually not called in the same goroutine. This results in a race
on this field, e.g.:

To fix this, introduce a new type, Invalidatable, which protects the field.
Unfortunately the Drawable must be passed to the callback function in
Invalidate, so we still need to re-implement this in each Invalidatable user.
