Bug description

On a ticket, i have fields adding a custom field.
The custom is configured to hide when one of two catégories is selected.
But when selecting another Type, glpi reload the catégories dropdown at the same time the plugin fields try to read the new catégories to see if he need to hide the custom field.
That create an error where getDropdownValue.php return nothing.
I figured it is a timing problem so i ask Claude to add a delay on the hiding engine of fields.

In Field.class.php located in fields/inc/field.class.php

Lines 1060 to 1113.
The hinding engine now wait for glpi normal completion of the page reload on Ticket type change.

// Track in-flight GLPI category AJAX calls.
                    // GLPI reloads the category dropdown by replacing its DOM entirely
                    // (Ajax::updateItemOnSelectEvent → dropdownTicketCategories.php).
                    // This never fires select2:opening, so we must intercept at the XHR level.
                    // While that reload is pending, we defer any Fields refreshContainer() call
                    // to avoid a race that corrupts Select2 ("Les résultats ne peuvent pas être chargés").
                    var fields_category_pending = 0;
                    var fields_deferred_refresh = false;

                    $(document).ajaxSend(function(event, xhr, settings) {
                        if (settings.url && settings.url.indexOf('dropdownTicketCategories') !== -1) {
                            fields_category_pending++;
                        }
                    });
                    $(document).ajaxComplete(function(event, xhr, settings) {
                        if (settings.url && settings.url.indexOf('dropdownTicketCategories') !== -1) {
                            fields_category_pending = Math.max(0, fields_category_pending - 1);
                            if (fields_category_pending === 0 && fields_deferred_refresh) {
                                fields_deferred_refresh = false;
                                refreshContainer();
                            }
                        }
                    });

                    form.on(
                        'change',
                        'input, select, textarea',
                        function(evt) {
                            if (evt.target.hasAttribute('data-actor-type')) {
                                // Do not handle actor type changes
                                return;
                            }

                            if (evt.target.name == "itilcategories_id") {
                                // Never use category itself as a Fields refresh trigger —
                                // it is reloaded by GLPI and would cause a race condition
                                return;
                            }

                            if ($(evt.target).closest('#{$html_id}').length > 0) {
                                return; // Do nothing if element is inside fields container
                            }

                            if (fields_category_pending > 0) {
                                // Category dropdown is mid-reload; defer until it completes
                                fields_deferred_refresh = true;
                                return;
                            }

                            refreshContainer();
                        }
                    );

I didnt do much digging so i dont know if that breaks something else. That is why i create an issue instead of a pull request.

Hope that can help someone.
