Description of Change
This PR fixes the race condition where
PopupExtensionscould callNavigation.PushModalAsync()/Shell.GotoAsync()to display aPopupwhile a previously-calledNavigation.PushModalAsync()/Shell.GotoAsync()could actively be running.To avoid this race condition, I added
SemaphoreSlim showPopupSemaphoreSlim = new(1, 1);and now callshowPopupSemaphoreSlim.WaitAsync()before eachNavigation.PushModalAsync()/Shell.GotoAsync()method call. This ensures we wait until the modal page has finished pushing before we ask MAUI to push a new modal page.Linked Issues
