Summary

This scopes the DevTools fastRefreshScheduled bridge event to the renderer that scheduled Fast Refresh.

Today the backend emits a global Fast Refresh event, so the frontend clears hook-name/AST metadata and refreshes the inspected element cache even when the selected element belongs to a different renderer. Passing the rendererID through the hook/agent/bridge lets the inspected element context skip the purge when it can tell the refresh came from another renderer.

Test Plan

  • Not run locally yet; opening as draft for initial feedback.
  • Intended checks before marking ready:
    • DevTools Flow/type checks
    • relevant React DevTools tests
    • manual multi-renderer DevTools smoke test if available

Risk / Notes

This preserves the existing behavior when rendererID is null or when no selected element is available. The optimization only skips the purge when the currently inspected element has a different rendererID than the renderer that scheduled Fast Refresh.
