Description
When pressing "r", the app should prompt the user with an "Are you sure?" modal, and then rescan the entire folder. This is good in case the contents of the folder have changed since the app was open and we don't want to exit the app and enter it again.

Research direction
Start at the key-handling entry point for "r" and the existing folder-scanning flow, then inspect how confirmation modals are implemented. The change is done when pressing "r" asks for confirmation and, when confirmed, rescans the entire folder without exiting the app.
