Description
feat: rename tabs via the tab-bar context menu
Feature description
Tabs currently can only be closed from the tab context menu. It would be
useful to rename non-permanent tabs directly from the tab bar — especially
since workspace tab labels are user-meaningful.
Proposed solution
Add a Rename item next to Close in the tab-bar context menu for
non-permanent tabs in both workspace and Home tab groups. Workspace tabs
update via updateTabLabel; Home tabs via an equivalent rename path.
Additional context
Implemented on a fork; small, self-contained frontend change.

Research direction
Start at the tab-bar context-menu entry point for non-permanent workspace and Home tabs, then trace the workspace updateTabLabel path and the equivalent Home rename path. Done means Rename appears beside Close in both groups, updates each tab label, and leaves permanent tabs unchanged; the payload names no file or test to run.
