RedefinedMethodException when evaluating visualization argument

[hubertp]

[enso] Evaluation of visualization argument [['self', 'argument']] failed in module [local.Enso_Getting_Started_1.Main] with [RedefinedMethodException]: Methods cannot be overloaded, but you have tried to overload Main.main

No easy steps to reproduce and full stracktrace is missing. But likely a culprit for "stuck" visualizations on IDE.

Finally figured that one out.

This is an unfortunate regression introduced in #7042 which lowered the scope of the writeCompilationLock. The problem is that evaluating the expression (now outside of the lock) in UpsertVisualizationJob may trigger a compilation. If during that time there is any other job that does the compilation as well, we get the exception.

Hubert Plociniczak reports a new STANDUP for yesterday (2023-11-23):

Progress: Went back to #8296, trying to figure out the circumstances for the exception, while making my way through a bookclub. Didn't get far - fixed NPE #8381. Also, I assumed that java formatting would be fixed after jdk21 upgrade but #5461 is still broken; identified the problem in outdated version of google formatter of our sbt-java-formatter. #5461 is unlikely to be fixed by authors so we might have to fork and publish the artifact ourselves. It should be finished by 2023-11-24.

Next Day: Next day I will be working on the #8296 task. Get through a bookclub without problems and figure out #8296.

Hubert Plociniczak reports a new STANDUP for the provided date (2023-11-24):

Progress: Briefly investigated #8376; turned out that some protocol condition was violated in the new GUI implementation. Got another deadlock while testing again bookclub (reported as #8383); no idea on the source of the error or a fix. Finally figured out under what conditions #8296 would randomly pop up - there is a problem with locks. Provided final feedback on old bookclub. It should be finished by 2023-11-24.

Next Day: Next day I will be working on the #8296 task. Create a PR that fixes the problem.
