lua/forge/log.lua, lua/forge/ci_history.lua, and lua/forge/pr_checks.lua each implement their own small request/buffer lifecycle stack.

Common repeated patterns include:

buf_data tables
request ID tracking
process cleanup / cancellation
public vim.b.forge buffer metadata setup
current-row navigation helpers

This issue is for extracting shared internal helpers for CI-view request and buffer lifecycle management so these read-only surfaces stop re-implementing the same mechanics independently.

The goal is not to redesign the user-facing buffers, only to reduce duplicated lifecycle code and make later changes safer.
