We use a timeout in our blist selection changed callback to prevent buddy
list flickering when scrolling through the list, but this appears to be the
root cause of buddies sometimes being rendered "half height". Ticket #1511
managed to narrow it down to happening when collapsing (or expanding) a
group below the currently selected node, so I made it so the timeout is
only used when the new selection is not a group node. Fixes #1511
