Improve selected file refresh in pending changes

Currently if a file is selected in the pending changes view, and you click "Show Diffs" the differences appear in the lower portion of the screen.

Suppose you don't like a change that you see, return to the file and fix it, and come back to Pending Changes. Obviously the current diff does not reflect the changes. However, if you click the Refresh button it does not refresh the file which is currently selected. It appears to cache the changes.

You can select another file and return to the first one to see the new change; in fact you don't need to refresh the view for this to work, it simply reloads it.

This can be very misleading, especially when only checking in 1 file.

So: When refreshing the Pending Changes view with Show Diffs enabled, if the file has changed since it was loaded into the Diff view, reload it and recalculate the merge.

Note that this happens in both the PlasticSCM Client, and in the VS2013 plugin.

    There is one new issue that we're having with the fix for this which seems to be related to if the selected file is checked-out.

    It happens mostly for our users which are running from a remote location and have a short latency issue.

    I'm sending a more detailed request through PlasticSCM Support since we're paying customers as well.
