Description
### Expected Behavior
Clicking a folder name should only open the folder common settings (Auth, Headers ...), but not fold / unfold the folder.
Clicking the folder's icon should fold / unfold the folder.
### Actual Behavior
Inside a collection, when I click a folder name, it folds / unfolds.
My intent is not to fold or unfold the folder it but rather to use the folder common settings. To fold / unfold I'd click on the folder icon itself (or an arrow right / down symbol if there was one), which is the usual behavior in many folder and file systems.
This makes it impossible to access the folder common settings without changing the folder's fold / unfold state, which is annoying.
### Reproduction Steps
1. Go to a collection
2. Create a folder
3. Add a few requests
4. Click on the folder name (not the folder icon)
5. The folder settings will open, but the folder will also fold / unfold.

Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reproducing the interaction in a collection with a folder and several requests, then trace the collection folder UI handling for name clicks and folder-icon clicks. Done means clicking the folder name opens its common settings without changing its folded state, while clicking the icon still folds or unfolds it.
