Description

### Description

When I open NetBeans terminal window at the moment I have open some file from some project, It will helps me, when the terminal will be opened in the root of the project.

Possible way can be with combination of https://github.com/apache/netbeans/issues/4615 if NetBeans propagate the project path into some environment variable into the terminal.

Research direction

Start with the NetBeans terminal-window behavior described here and read related issue #4615 for the proposed project-path propagation. Trace how the terminal chooses its initial directory; done means opening it while a project file is active starts at that project's root.
