Fix stop button for sync

[ahuang11]

As Philipp mentioned #6295 (comment), "Generators really do not seem useful here, a generator function is blocking, therefore even if this did work you'd just get the final output and never see the intermediate outputs."

After, I realized the stop button didn't quite work for sync functions. For some reason, at some point in time, I thought loop.run_in_executor would prevent it from blocking the placeholder / stop clicks, like https://stackoverflow.com/questions/41063331/how-to-use-asyncio-with-existing-blocking-library, but I couldn't get it to work.

This PR hides the stop button if it's a sync function and immediately shows the placeholder.

from time import sleep

import panel as pn

pn.extension()


def callback(contents: str, user: str, instance: pn.chat.ChatInterface):
    sleep(5)
    message = ""
    for char in "Echoing User: " + contents:
        sleep(0.05)
        message += char
        yield message


chat_interface = pn.chat.ChatInterface(callback=callback, placeholder_threshold=0.5)
chat_interface.send(
    "Enter a message in the TextInput below and receive an echo!",
    user="System",
    respond=False,
)
chat_interface.servable()

JupyterLite test execution is failing the UI tests, which is unrelated. Will merge.
