Description

The sendme send command is quite visually distracting:

⠁ [00:00:00] waiting for requests
⠒ [00:00:00] waiting for requests
imported file beloved_family_photo.png, 596.48 KiB, hash (very long hash)
to get this data, use
sendme receive (very long code)
press c to copy command to clipboard, or use the --clipboard argument
⠄ [00:00:01] waiting for requests 

There's waiting for requests shown three times, two times before it's even given me the code phrase. I also have muscle memory for copying the code from the terminal instead of the c hotkey, so I'll often times copy other lines when trying to grab it because there's no spacing between the other lines.

The first two waiting for requests showing up seems like a bug, but my request is to just have some spacing between the sendme receive line.

Start at the sendme send command entry point and reproduce the output shown in the issue. Trace the progress and receive-instructions rendering; done means the repeated waiting for requests lines are avoided and the sendme receive line has enough spacing for terminal copying.
