Simon Ser 5feb7dede9 lib/ui: fix Grid race condition
This was is more complicated than others. The cells list is accessed by
multiple goroutines:

- Some change the Grid's contents via AddChild/RemoveChild
- Some call Draw
- Some invalidate the grid via Invalidate

Invalidate calls are tricky to handle because they will also invalidate all
child cells. This will inturn trigger the cellInvalidated callback, which needs
to read the list of cells.

For this reason, we use a sync.RWLock which allows multiple concurrent reads.

Below is the race fixed by this commit.
