Description
The "Set Variable Value" action does not always produce the expected dialog. I would expect the menu item would be disabled if the variable I've selected is ineligible to have its value set.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue in Binary Ninja 3.6.4685-dev with the "Set Variable Value" action, then locate the action's eligibility and dialog handling in the C++ implementation. Confirm the behavior for both eligible and ineligible variables; done means ineligible selections disable the menu item and eligible selections open the expected dialog.
