The disk space bar doesn't update after permanently deleting trash

[peteruithoven]

What Happened?

I right click on the Trash item in the side bar and select Permanently Delete Trash.
But the bar under the influenced drive which indicates available disk space doesn't update.
It does update when I press ctrl+R.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Move a significant amount of stuff to trash so that clearing it influences the disk space bar
2. In Files sidebar, right click on the Trash item
3. Select Permanently Delete Trash.

Expected Behavior

The disk space bar under the influenced drive updates.

@peteruithoven Thanks for the report! I suspect this only happens if you clear trash with the sidebar without having the trash folder displayed in the view? Looks like the empty trash code does not signal a free space change itself, it is the view that does this. This should be easy to fix, thanks for pointing it out.

Thanks for the quick check!

I indeed haven't tested this recently with the trash folder opened.
