Description
Like Cursor, the Amazon Q Developer chat should allow a user to drag and drop files, folders, images, ETC into the chat for context.
Furthermore, it should also allow the user to drag/drop context from VSCode's file explorer, if possible (perhaps allow the extension to be open in a separate subwindow, or on the "right side" of vscode, with the vscode's file explorer on the left)
Contributor guide
Research direction
The issue names no files or tests; start by locating the Amazon Q chat entry point and its current context-handling flow. Determine how VS Code Explorer and OS drag-and-drop events could reach the chat, then verify that files, folders, images, and other stated context can be dropped from Finder, Explorer, and VS Code's file explorer.
