tweak(tui): status bar spacing + muted busy-segment dash

Two small polishes.

- StatusBar: the busy branch used to emit three pad groups
  before the provider/model block (pad + busyPrefix + pad +
  pad). On screen that read as six spaces between the elapsed
  counter and "(openai) gpt-5.4", which looked like a layout
  bug. Collapsed to two pads so the gap matches the idle path
  exactly: 2 spaces before the model block, 2 spaces between
  the busy segment and the model block.

- The separator between the spinner message and the elapsed
  counter was rendered as a plain unstyled "-", which the
  terminal painted in the default foreground colour (white on
  my dark theme) and stood out against the muted counter next
  to it. Pulled the dash into its own FG256(Muted, ...) call so
  the whole tail ("- 15s") shares the same grey tone.
