This PR renames and added a new pane event to indicate the difference between `removing` and `removed` event. This change is needed for the debugger implementation, if you close a pane we have to send a `terminateThread` request to the adapter because it's not supported to reopen a pane. So when the pane is removing we have to know what thread it is what is stored on the panel itself, so we have to be able to get this information before the pane is actually removed. So my idea how to fix this was by adding a new event called `RemovedItem` which is a rename of `RemoveItem` which also makes a bit more sense because the item is removed at that point. And seeing the name `RemoveItem` does not really say that it's removed, more like we are removing the item. /cc @mikayla-maki Release Notes: - N/A |

Design notes:
This crate is split into two conceptual halves:
- The terminal.rs file and the src/mappings/ folder, these contain the code for interacting with Alacritty and maintaining the pty event loop. Some behavior in this file is constrained by terminal protocols and standards. The Zed init function is also placed here.
- Everything else. These other files integrate the
Terminalstruct created in terminal.rs into the rest of GPUI. The main entry point for GPUI is the terminal_view.rs file and the modal.rs file.
ttys are created externally, and so can fail in unexpected ways. However, GPUI currently does not have an API for models than can fail to instantiate. TerminalBuilder solves this by using Rust's type system to split tty instantiation into a 2 step process: first attempt to create the file handles with TerminalBuilder::new(), check the result, then call TerminalBuilder::subscribe(cx) from within a model context.
The TerminalView struct abstracts over failed and successful terminals, passing focus through to the associated view and allowing clients to build a terminal without worrying about errors.
#Input
There are currently many distinct paths for getting keystrokes to the terminal:
-
Terminal specific characters and bindings. Things like ctrl-a mapping to ASCII control character 1, ANSI escape codes associated with the function keys, etc. These are caught with a raw key-down handler in the element and are processed immediately. This is done with the
try_keystroke()method on Terminal -
GPU Action handlers. GPUI clobbers a few vital keys by adding bindings to them in the global context. These keys are synthesized and then dispatched through the same
try_keystroke()API as the above mappings -
IME text. When the special character mappings fail, we pass the keystroke back to GPUI to hand it to the IME system. This comes back to us in the
View::replace_text_in_range()method, and we then send that to the terminal directly, bypassingtry_keystroke(). -
Pasted text has a separate pathway.
Generally, there's a distinction between 'keystrokes that need to be mapped' and 'strings which need to be written'. I've attempted to unify these under the '.try_keystroke()' API and the .input() API (which try_keystroke uses) so we have consistent input handling across the terminal
