Replace manual Fibers with Async gem primitives for component streaming
## Problem We need to run async gem code inside the `each_chunk` function for the upcoming React on Rails async props implementation. However, this raises the error "Running scheduler on non-blocking fiber" because `each_chunk` executes within a manually created Fiber instead of a Fiber managed by the async gem. ## Solution Replace manual Fiber management with async gem primitives: - **Async::Barrier**: Tracks all component streaming tasks - **Async::Variable**: Synchronizes first chunk delivery - **Async::LimitedQueue**: Single output queue for all components ## Changes 1. **stream_view_containing_react_components**: - Wrap entire method in `Sync do` block - Initialize `@async_barrier` and `@main_output_queue` before rendering - Components can now start async tasks during view rendering 2. **run_stream_inside_fiber**: - Replace `Fiber.new` with `@async_barrier.async` - Use `Async::Variable` to wait for first chunk synchronously - First chunk stored in variable, remaining chunks enqueued to main queue 3. **drain_streams_concurrently**: - Simplified from 45 lines to 11 lines - Just wait on barrier, close queue, drain chunks - Removed `build_producer_tasks` and `build_writer_task` methods ## Benefits - ✅ Unified concurrency model (all async gem, no manual Fibers) - ✅ Enables async gem code to run inside component streaming - ✅ Simpler code (-40 lines total) - ✅ Same functionality: concurrent streaming, backpressure, error handling 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
