feat(status-panel): enhance UI and add new functionality

This update introduces several improvements to the StatusPanel component, enhancing the user interface and experience. A new function has been added to simplify file path handling, and the overlay now features a more dynamic design with animated elements for better visual feedback during operations.

- Added baseName function for improved path handling
- Enhanced status overlay with animations and new design elements
- Updated file staging and unstaging messages for clarity
