This PR implements the preview tabs feature from VSCode. More details and thanks for the head start of the implementation here #6782. Here is what I have observed from using the vscode implementation ([x] -> already implemented): - [x] Single click on project file opens tab as preview - [x] Double click on item in project panel opens tab as permanent - [x] Double click on the tab makes it permanent - [x] Navigating away from the tab makes the tab permanent and the new tab is shown as preview (e.g. GoToReference) - [x] Existing preview tab is reused when opening a new tab - [x] Dragging tab to the same/another panel makes the tab permanent - [x] Opening a tab from the file finder makes the tab permanent - [x] Editing a preview tab will make the tab permanent - [x] Using the space key in the project panel opens the tab as preview - [x] Handle navigation history correctly (restore a preview tab as preview as well) - [x] Restore preview tabs after restarting - [x] Support opening files from file finder in preview mode (vscode: "Enable Preview From Quick Open") I need to do some more testing of the vscode implementation, there might be other behaviors/workflows which im not aware of that open an item as preview/make them permanent. Showcase: https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/assets/53836821/9be16515-c740-4905-bea1-88871112ef86 TODOs - [x] Provide `enable_preview_tabs` setting - [x] Write some tests - [x] How should we handle this in collaboration mode (have not tested the behavior so far) - [x] Keyboard driven usage (probably need workspace commands) - [x] Register `TogglePreviewTab` only when setting enabled? - [x] Render preview tabs in tab switcher as italic - [x] Render preview tabs in image viewer as italic - [x] Should this be enabled by default (it is the default behavior in VSCode)? - [x] Docs Future improvements (out of scope for now): - Support preview mode for find all references and possibly other multibuffers (VSCode: "Enable Preview From Code Navigation") Release Notes: - Added preview tabs ([#4922](https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/4922)). --------- Co-authored-by: Conrad Irwin <conrad.irwin@gmail.com>
