fix: offload refresh() blocking I/O to a thread; document MissingApplicationID (v0.1.2)

refresh() did folder scan, magic-byte sniff, and per-file image reads directly
on the event loop. Offload via asyncio.to_thread so the loop stays responsive
during a large sync; behavior (validation, size cap, stem-collision and
missing-dir raises) is unchanged.

Also documents discord.MissingApplicationID in refresh()'s Raises contract -
it is a ClientException, not an HTTPException, so it was previously uncaught
by the existing except clauses and unlisted in the docstring.
