📔 Objective

This commit addresses a UI flicker issue where a loading dialog would briefly appear, or remain visible, when the vault data was being updated in the background during the item export flow.

The handleVaultDataPending function in ReviewExportViewModel was unnecessarily triggering a generic loading dialog. This function is called when vault data is updating (e.g., after a sync), which caused the dialog to flash on the screen or remain due to race-conditions.

The fix removes the call to showLoadingDialog from handleVaultDataPending. A more specific loading message, "Loading vault data...", has been added to the handleVaultDataLoading function to provide better user feedback when the initial data is being fetched. Additionally, a test case was updated to reflect that the loading dialog is not cleared during the pending state.
