Fix broken application.app.controller references in Bluesky buffers

application.app was never set anywhere - application.py is just a
constants module. Every call to view_chat(), on_new_chat(),
view_conversation(), on_reposts(), and on_likes() crashed with
AttributeError, silently swallowed by get_event's except clause.

Fix: store controller reference on each buffer during create_buffer()
in mainController, then use self.controller instead of the broken
application.app.controller pattern throughout all Bluesky buffer and
dialog code.
