Description
### Problem
Accidentally closing an integrated terminal tab immediately purges all scrollback history/output, with no way to restore it.
### Proposed Solution
Add a shortcut to reopen recently closed terminal tabs (similar to `Ctrl+Shift+T` tab restoration in web browsers like Chrome), restoring the closed tab context and preserving recent scrollback buffer history.
### Alternatives Considered
Setting `"terminal.integrated.keepTerminalOutputOnKill": "always"` prevents major loss (some times) on accidental clicks.
