zeta: Compute diff on background thread (#22328)

Piotr Osiewicz created 1 year ago

@iamnbutler noticed slowness in assistant panel which I've pinned down
to the fact that we're calculating buffer diff on foreground thread.
This PR moves this computation into the background; I don't know much
about Zeta but it seems fine to do, as the call-site is asynchronous
anyways.

Closes #ISSUE

Release Notes:

- N/A
