Description

If a dashboard cell does not use `v.timeRangeStart`, `v.timeRangeStop`, or `v.windowPeriod`, changing the time range on a dashboard should not reissue the query.

it should be refreshed if the user hits the `refresh` button.

Research direction

No file, test, or entry point is named. Start by tracing how dashboard time-range changes trigger cell queries, then compare that path with the refresh button behavior. Done means cells that do not use the time-range variables are not reissued on range changes but still refresh explicitly.
