sort_files - Click on the opening curly brace
- Notice an error message gets logged like ```[Default] Invalid HighLevelIL token exprIndex 387 in HighLevelLanguageRepresentationFunctionGraph of 407e50 (reported instrIndex 18446744073709551615)

Research direction
Reproduce the issue by opening ls.txt, navigating to the pseudo-C linear view and sort_files, then clicking the opening curly brace. Start by tracing the logged “Invalid HighLevelIL token” message from that interaction. Done means the click no longer logs the error and the existing pseudo-C view behavior remains intact.
