This adds a new feature to the Windows Terminal: "Workspaces"
Workspaces are very shamelessly inspired by Edge workspaces of the same
name.
The core idea is that when users name a window and they close that
window, we will persist that Windows layout and buffers, seperately from
the rest of window restoration. So a user can open a named window, open
some profiles, some panes, do some stuff in it, then close it, and we
will keep that state around for the next time the user opens that window
name.
Unnamed windows still behave the same. If you close an unnamed window,
and it's not the last window, then we won't persist the state of it.
To facilitate restoring named windows, we add a `openWorkspace` action.
This allows us to persist the open workspace action in the window layout
restoration path. So when we deserialize the list of tab layouts, and
open workspace action will tell us, hey, go retrieve this known
workspace from the state.json, instead of trying to serialize the window
state in two places.
As demoed in the video, we add a flyout to list the windows that the
user has open, and the named workspaces that they have saved. This
allows users to quickly reopen previously closed workspaces, as well as
quickly rename a window, thereby adding it to the list of saved
workspaces. This button can also be hidden using the theme settings.

## Summary of the Pull Request
Changes how/when we display the "restart connection" item in the tab's
context menu. Now, we always display it, but it's disabled if we're not
in a terminal tab.
Applies similar enable/disable logic to the rest of the menu items.
Previous to this, they just wouldn't do anything (which is fair, they
didn't make any sense).
## Validation Steps Performed
Check tab's menu in following scenarios:
✅ terminal pane
✅ settings tab
✅ snippets pane
Closes#18891
## Summary of the Pull Request
* As per the discussions in
[#19228](https://github.com/microsoft/terminal/issues/19228), updated
the command palette strings.
* Similar change is done for the strings used in Terminal settings
editor as well.
## PR Checklist
Closes#19228
Implements reflection to the various ActionArg types in the settings
model, which allows these structs to provide information about
themselves (i.e. what args they contain and what types they are). This
is necessary as a pre-requisite for the Settings Editor to display and
modify these arg values.
## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
* The `IActionArgs` interface now has additional methods:
* Get the number of args
* Get/Set an arg at a specific index
* Get a vector of arg descriptions; the arg description contains:
* name of the arg
* type of the arg
* whether the arg is required
* a tag, this is to cover special cases (for example the ColorScheme
argument is technically of type "string", but only allows specific
values)
* All the macros in `ActionArgsMagic` have been updated to support the
new interface
* `ActionMap` has been updated to support adding/editing/deleting
actions and keybindings from outside the SettingsModel
* It also handles ID change requests for commands
* EnumMappings have been added to various ActionArg enums that weren't
there before
## Validation Steps Performed
Bug bashed in conjunction with #18917
This pull request adds an Extensions page to the Settings UI, which lets
you enable/disable extensions and see how they affect your settings
(i.e. adding/modifying profiles and adding color schemes). This page is
specifically designed for fragment extensions and dynamic profile
generators, but can be expanded on in the future as we develop a more
advanced extensions model.
App extensions extract the name and icon from the extension package and
display it in the UI. Dynamic profile generators extract the name and
icon from the generator and display it in the UI. We prefer to use the
display name for breadcrumbs when possible.
A "NEW" badge was added to the Extensions page's `NavigationViewItem` to
highlight that it's new. It goes away once the user visits it.
## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
- Settings Model changes:
- `FragmentSettings` represents a parsed json fragment extension.
- `FragmentProfileEntry` and `FragmentColorSchemeEntry` are used to
track profiles and color schemes added/modified
- `ExtensionPackage` bundles the `FragmentSettings` together. This is
how we represent multiple JSON files in one extension.
- `IDynamicProfileGenerator` exposes a `DisplayName` and `Icon`
- `ExtensionPackage`s created from app extensions extract the
`DisplayName` and `Icon` from the extension
- `ApplicationState` is used to track which badges have been dismissed
and prevent them from appearing again
- a `std::unordered_set` is used to keep track of the dismissed badges,
but we only expose a get and append function via the IDL to interact
with it
- Editor changes - view models:
- `ExtensionsViewModel` operates as the main view model for the page.
- `FragmentProfileViewModel` and `FragmentColorSchemeViewModel` are used
to reference specific components of fragments. They also provide support
for navigating to the linked profile or color scheme via the settings
UI!
- `ExtensionPackageViewModel` is a VM for a group of extensions exposed
by a single source. This is mainly needed because a single source can
have multiple JSON fragments in it. This is used for the navigators on
the main page. Can be extended to provide additional information (i.e.
package logo, package name, etc.)
- `CurrentExtensionPackage` is used to track which extension package is
currently in view, if applicable (similar to how the new tab menu page
works)
- Editor changes - views:
- `Extensions.xaml` uses _a lot_ of data templates. These are reused in
`ItemsControl`s to display extension components.
- `ExtensionPackageTemplateSelector` is used to display
`ExtensionPackage`s with metadata vs simple ones that just have a source
(i.e. Git)
- Added a `NewInfoBadge` style that is just an InfoBadge with "New" in
it instead of a number or an icon. Based on
https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/pull/36939
- The visibility is bound to a `get` call to the `ApplicationState`
conducted via the `ExtensionsPageViewModel`. The VM is also responsible
for updating the state.
- Lazy loading extension objects
- Since most instances of Terminal won't actually open the settings UI,
it doesn't make sense to create all the extension objects upon startup.
Instead, we defer creating those objects until the user actually
navigates to the Extensions page. This is most of the work that happened
in `CascadiaSettingsSerialization.cpp`. The `SettingsLoader` can be used
specifically to load and create the extension objects.
## Validation Steps
✅ Keyboard navigation feels right
✅ Screen reader reads all info on screen properly
✅ Accessibility Insights FastPass found no issues
✅ "Discard changes" retains subpage, but removes any changes
✅ Extensions page nav item displays a badge if page hasn't been visited
✅ The badge is dismissed when the user visits the page
## Follow-ups
- Streamline a process for adding extensions from the new page
- Long-term, we can reuse the InfoBadge system and make the following
minor changes:
- `SettingContainer`: display the badge and add logic to read/write
`ApplicationState` appropriately (similarly to above)
- `XPageViewModel`:
- count all the badges that will be displayed and expose/bind that to
`InfoBadge.Value`
- If a whole page is new, we can just style the badge using the
`NewInfoBadge` style

In #16886, the key for the nested action got renamed from `Split
Pane...` to `Split pane`. This accidentally caused a collision because
now there's two actions with the same name! The settings model then
prefers the user's action over the one defined in defaults.json, thus
completely hiding the nested version.
I tried to balance the stylistic recommendations from #16846 (mainly
[this
comment](https://github.com/microsoft/terminal/issues/16846#issuecomment-2005007519)
since it gave some excellent examples) while trying to maintain muscle
memory as much as possible (with similar substring sequences). There was
also one case where we still used "the tab" so I removed the "the" for
consistency.
Side effect of #16886 which closed#16846Closes#17294Closes#17684
Adds a keybinding to open the quick fix menu, if one is available. When
the action is used, we also open up the button (if it was collapsed)
because that looks nice.
The `showSuggestions` action is bound to `ctrl+shift+period` by default
to align with VS' "quick actions" feature and VS Code's "quick fix"
feature. This was chosen over binding to `quickFix` because it's more
helpful. The quick fix button is a route for users that prefer to use
the mouse. If users want to add a keybinding to activate the `quickFix`
button, they can do that now.
This PR also performs a bit of miscellaneous polish from the bug bash.
This includes:
- the suggestions UI now presents quick fixes first
- scrolling may result in the button being drawn in the wrong place
- The bug was tracked down this line:
`TermControl::CursorPositionInDips()` --> `_core.CursorPosition()` -->
`Terminal::GetViewportRelativeCursorPosition()`. The mutable viewport
there does _not_ update when the user scrolls. Thus, the button would be
drawn on the same position _on the screen_ even though we scrolled. To
fix this, I include the `_scrollOffset` in the calculation. The only
other place this function is used is with the suggestions UI, which does
_not_ update the UIs position as we scroll (but if we're interested in
doing that, we can now).
Closes#17377
This adds a snippets pane, which can be a static pane with all your
snippets (`sendInput` actions) in it. (See #17329)
This pane has a treeview with these actions in it, that we can filter
with a textbox at the top.
Play buttons next to entries make it quick to run the command you found.
Bound in the default actions with
```json
{ "command": { "action": "splitPane", "type": "snippets" }, "id": "Terminal.OpenSnippetsPane", "name": { "key": "SnippetsPaneCommandName" } },
```

TODO, from 06-04 bug bash
* [x] Snippets pane doesn't display some "no snippets found" text if
there aren't any yet
* [x] open snippets pane; find a "send input"; click the play button on
it; input is sent to active pane; begin typing
* [x] I can open an infinite amount of suggestions panes
* ~I'm closing this as by-design for now at least. Nothing stopping
anyone from opening infinite of any kind of pane.~
* ~This would require kind of a lot of refactoring in this PR to mark a
kind of pane as being a singleton or singleton-per-tab~
* Okay everyone hates infinite suggestions panes, so I got rid of that
* [x] Ctrl+Shift+W should still work in the snippets pane even if focus
isn't in textbox
* [ ] open snippets pane; click on text box; press TAB key;
* [ ] If you press TAB again, I have no idea where focus went
* [x] some previews don't work. Like `^c` (`"input": "\u0003"`)
* [x] nested items just give you a bit of extra space for no reason and
it looks a little awkward
* [x] UI Suggestion: add padding on the right side
* [ ] [Accessibility] Narrator says "Clear buffer; Suggestions found
132" when you open the snippets pane
- Note: this is probably Narrator reading out the command palette (since
that's where I opened it from)
- We should probably expect something like "Snippets", then (assuming
focus is thrown into text box) "Type to filter snippets" or something
like that

Adds a new suggestion source, `tasks`, that allows a user to open the
Suggestions UI with `sendInput` commands saved in their settings.
`source` becomes a flag setting, so it can be combined like so:
```json
{
"keys": "ctrl+shift+h", "command": { "action": "suggestions", "source": "commandHistory", "useCommandline":true },
},
{
"keys": "ctrl+shift+y", "command": { "action": "suggestions", "source": "tasks", "useCommandline":false },
},
{
"keys": "ctrl+shift+b", "command": { "action": "suggestions", "source": ["all"], "useCommandline":true },
},
```
If a nested command has `sendInput` commands underneath it, this will
build a tree of commands that only include `sendInput`s as leaves (but
leave the rest of the nesting structure intact).

This adds support for a new action, `showSuggestions`, as described in
#14864. This adds just one `source` currently, `recentCommands`. This
requires shell integration to be enabled in the shell to work properly.
When it is enabled, activating that action will invoke the suggestions
UI as a palette, populated with `sendInput` actions for each of the
user's recent commands.
* These don't persist across reboots.
* These are per-control.
There's mild plans to remedy that in a follow-up, though that needs a
bit more design consideration.

Resurrection of #9222.
Spec draft in #9365.
Consensus from community feedback is that the whole of that spec is
_nice to have_, but what REALLY matters is just broadcasting to all the
panes in a tab. So, in the interest of best serving our community, I'm
pushing this out as the initial implementation, before we figure out the
rest of design. Regardless of how we choose to implement the rest of the
features detailed in the spec, the UX for this part of the feature
remains the same.
This PR adds a new action: `toggleBroadcastInput`. Performing this
action starts broadcasting to all panes in this tab. Keystrokes in one
pane will be sent to all panes in the tab.
An icon in the tab is used to indicate when this mode is active.
Furthermore, the borders of all panes will be highlighted with
`SystemAccentColorDark2`/`SystemAccentColorLight2` (depending on the
theme), to indicate they're also active.

This PR adds a `searchWeb` command to search the selected text on the web.
Arguments:
- `queryUrl`: URL of the web page to launch (the selected text will be
inserted where the first `%s` is found in the query string)
To make the search text more "compact" and handle multi-line selections,
I'm concatenating the selected lines and replacing consecutive
whitespaces with a single space (we may change this with something more
clever in case).

as a default action. This will manually invoke the control context menu
(from #14775), even with the setting disabled.
As discussed with Dustin.
Adds an action for immediately restarting the connection. I suspect
most folks that wanted #3726 will be happy just with the
<kbd>enter</kbd> solution from #14060, but this will work without having
to `exit` the client. Just, relaunch whatever the commandline is. Easy
peasy.
Closes#3726.
Obsoletes #14549
Adds two new commands, `selectOutput` and `selectCommand`. These don't
do much without shell integration enabled, unfortunately. If you do
enable it, however, you can use these commands to quickly navigate the
history to select whole commands (or their output).
Some sample JSON:
```json
{ "keys": "ctrl+shift+<", "command": { "action": "selectCommand", "direction": "prev" } },
{ "keys": "ctrl+shift+>", "command": { "action": "selectCommand", "direction": "next" } },

This pull request implements portable mode for Windows Terminal, which
will make side by side deployment of different versions generally more
feasible.
Portable mode was specified in #15032.
There are three broad categories of changes in this PR:
1. Changes to settings loading.
2. A new indicator in the settings UI plus a link to the portable mode
docs.
3. A new application display name, `Terminal (Portable)`, which users
will hopefully include in their bug reports.
It's surprisingly small for how big a deal it is!

_Lo! Harken to me, for I shall divulge the heart of the tab tear-out
saga. Verily, this PR shall bestow upon thee the power to move tabs and
panes between windows by means of pre-defined actions. Though be warned,
it does not yet grant thee the power to drag and drop them as thou
mayest desire. Yet, the same plumbing that underpins this work shall
remain steadfast. Behold, the majority of this undertaking concerns the
elevation of the RequestMoveContent event from the TerminalPage to the
very summit of the Monarch. From thence, a great AttachContent method
shall descend back to the lowest depths. Furthermore, there are minor
revisions to TermControl that shall enable thee to better detach the
content and attach it to a new one._
This is the most important part of the tab tear-out saga. This PR
enables the user to move tabs and panes between windows using
pre-defined actions. It does _not_ enable the user to drag/drop them
yet, but the same fundamental plumbing will still apply. Most of the PR
is plumbing the `RequestMoveContent` event up from the `TerminalPage` up
to the `Monarch`, and then plumbing an `AttachContent` method back down.
There are also small changes to `TermControl` to better support
detaching the content and attaching to a new one.
For testing, I recommend:
```json
{ "keys": "f1", "command": { "action": "moveTab", "window": "1" } },
{ "keys": "f2", "command": { "action": "moveTab", "window": "2" } },
{ "keys": "f3", "command": { "action": "movePane", "window": "1" } },
{ "keys": "f4", "command": { "action": "movePane", "window": "2" } },

## Summary of the Pull Request
As described in #9583, this change implements the legacy conhost "EnableColorSelection" feature.
## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
@zadjii-msft was super nice and provided the outline/plumbing (WinRT classes and such) as a hackathon-type project (thank you!)--a "SelectionColor" runtimeclass, a ColorSelection method on the ControlCore runtimeclass, associated plumbing through the layers; plus the action-and-args plumbing to allow hooking up a basic "ColorSelection" action, which allows you to put actions in your settings JSON like so:
```json
{
"command":
{
"action": "experimental.colorSelection",
"foreground": "#0f3"
},
"keys": "alt+4"
},
```
On top of that foundation, I added a couple of things:
* The ability to specify indexes for colors, in addition to RGB and RRGGBB colors.
- It's a bit hacky, because there are some conversions that fight against sneaking an "I'm an index" flag in the alpha channel.
* A new "matchMode" parameter on the action, allowing you to say if you want to only color the current selection ("0") or all matches ("1").
- I made it an int, because I'd like to enable at least one other "match mode" later, but it requires me/someone to fix up search.cpp to handle regex first.
- Search used an old UIA "ColorSelection" method which was previously `E_NOTIMPL`, but is now wired up. Don't know what/if anything else uses this.
* An uber-toggle setting, "EnableColorSelection", which allows you to set a single `bool` in your settings JSON, to light up all the keybindings you would expect from the legacy "EnableColorSelection" feature:
- alt+[0..9]: color foreground
- alt+shift+[0..9]: color foreground, all matches
- ctrl+[0..9]: color background
- ctrl+shift+[0..9]: color background, all matches
* A few of the actions cannot be properly invoked via their keybindings, due to #13124. `*!*` But they work if you do them from the command palette.
* If you have "`EnableColorSelection : true`" in your settings JSON, but then specify a different action in your JSON that uses the same key binding as a color selection keybinding, your custom one wins, which I think is the right thing.
* I fixed what I think was a bug in search.cpp, which also affected the legacy EnableColorSelection feature: due to a non-inclusive coordinate comparison, you were not allowed to color a single character; but I see no reason why that should be disallowed. Now you can make all your `X`s red if you like.
"Soft" spots:
* I was a bit surprised at some of the helpers I had to provide in textBuffer.cpp. Perhaps there are existing methods that I didn't find?
* Localization? Because there are so many (40!) actions, I went to some trouble to try to provide nice command/arg descriptions. But I don't know how localization works…

Just manual testing.
## Summary of the Pull Request
Introduces a new action `expandSelectionToWord()` which expands the beginning and end of the selection to encompass the word(s) it's on. This was implemented as a conditional keybinding where the key chord is passed through to the terminal if no selection is active (similar to `copy()`).
It is not bound to anything by default.
## PR Checklist
* [x] Closes#8274
* [x] Schema updated.
## Validation Steps Performed
- Scenario in #8274:
- search for some text in the find dialog
- ESC to close the dialog
- execute `expandSelectionToWord()`
- the new selection encompasses the whole word
- mark mode
- move onto a word
- execute `expandSelectionToWord()`
- mouse selection (same as above)
- select a portion of two words --> new selection fully encompasses both words
This PR introduces a new action for closing all unfocused / other panes within a tab.
**Edit (17-08-2022):** Read-only panes are ignored when this action is being used (i.e., left open).

## Validation Steps Performed
The action was manually tested by applying it to various 'compositions' of panes. This includes tests on read-only panes.

- comment collapsing is controlled by the `followup` bits in the workflow-- but I can't imagine why one would want to turn it off
- duplicate words can be masked in `patterns.txt` (see `Guid` and `that`)
- forbidding patterns (especially duplicates) is in `.github/actions/spelling/line_forbidden.patterns`
Fwiw, I'm slowly moving towards not using `.txt` in filenames, but it's a long term project and I have a bunch of other goals for the near term.
The refresh of advice is of course flexible -- I'm still evolving my default text. Note that the default now includes some `curl` and I'm still working on how I want to consume the output. I'm getting close to the point where I might be able to provide a tool that could reliably consume the output (including on Windows).
This code has been used internally for a while, but I tested it for this repository here:
https://github.com/check-spelling/terminal/pull/2
## Summary of the Pull Request
Introduces the `switchSelectionEndpoint` action which switches whichever selection endpoint is targeted when a selection is present. For example, if you are targeting "start", `switchSelectionEndpoint` makes it so that now you are targeting "end". This also updates the selection markers appropriately.

Spec - #5804#13358Closes#3663
## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
Most of the code is just standard code of adding a new action. Other than that, we have...
- if there is no selection, the action fails and the keybinding is passed through (similar to `copy()`)
- when we update the selection endpoint, we need to also update the "pivot". This ensures that future calls of `UpdateSelection()` respect this swap.
- [Corner Case] if the cursor is being moved, we make it so that you basically "anchored" an endpoint and you don't have to hold shift anymore.
Adds support for marks in the scrollbar. These marks can be added in 3
ways:
* Via the iterm2 `OSC 1337 ; SetMark` sequence
* Via the `addMark` action
* Automatically when the `experimental.autoMarkPrompts` per-profile
setting is enabled.
#11000 has more tracking for the big-picture for this feature, as well
as additional follow-ups. This set of functionality seemed complete
enough to send a review for now. That issue describes these how I wish
these actions to look in the fullness of time. This is simply the v0.1
from the hackathon last month.
#### Actions
* `addMark`: add a mark to the buffer. If there's a selection, use
place the mark covering at the selection. Otherwise, place the mark
on the cursor row.
- `color`: a color for the scrollbar mark. This is optional - defaults
to the `foreground` color of the current scheme if omitted.
* `scrollToMark`
- `direction`: `["first", "previous", "next", "last"]`
* `clearMark`: Clears marks at the current postition (either the
selection if there is one, or the cursor position.
* `clearAllMarks`: Don't think this needs explanation.
#### Per-profile settings
* `experimental.autoMarkPrompts`: `bool`, default `false`.
* `experimental.showMarksOnScrollbar`: `bool`

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
This is basically hackathon code. It's experimental! That's okay! We'll
figure the rest of the design in post.
Theoretically, I should make these actions `experimental.` as well, but
it seemed like since the only way to see these guys was via the
`experimental.showMarksOnScrollbar` setting, you've already broken
yourself into experimental jail, and you know what you're doing.
Things that won't work as expected:
* resizing, ESPECIALLY reflowing
* Clearing the buffer with ED sequences / Clear Buffer
I could theoretically add velocity around this in the `TermControl`
layer. Always prevent marks from being visible, ignore all the actions.
Marks could still be set by VT and automark, but they'd be useless.
Next up priorities:
* Making this work with the FinalTerm sequences
* properly speccing
* adding support for `showMarksOnScrollbar: flags(categories)`, so you
can only display errors on the scrollbar
* adding the `category` flag to the `addMark` action
## Validation Steps Performed
I like using it quite a bit. The marks can get noisy if you have them
emitted on every prompt and the buffer has 9000 lines. But that's the
beautiful thing, the actions work even if the marks aren't visible, so
you can still scroll between prompts.

If we want to make Windows Terminal the default terminal under Windows,
we'll have to make conhost "handoff" incoming connections by default.
But this poses a problem: How can the seldomly updated conhost know
whether the routinely updated Windows Terminal version is actually willing
to accept such handoffs by default (it might be unwilling due to bugs, etc.)?
This commit solves the issue by introducing:
* A marker interface (`IDefaultTerminalMarker`): If it exists,
Windows Terminal indicates its willingness to accept the handoff.
* Turning the all-0 GUID from being synonymous for conhost,
to being synonymous for "Let Windows decide". Without this we wouldn't
be able to differentiate between users who consciously chose conhost
as their default terminal, vs. users who want the standard behavior.
## Validation Steps Performed
Testing fallback behavior:
* Install "Terminal" 1.13
* Delete the 2 keys below `HKCU\Console\%%Startup`
* Enable `Feature_AttemptHandoff` in `features.xml`
Return `true` from `DefaultApp::CheckShouldTerminalBeDefault`
* Replace `conhost.exe` and `console.dll` with `sfpcopy` after building
* Launching `cmd.exe` launches as a conhost window ✅
(because "Terminal" 1.13 lacks the marker interface)
* Open properties page in `conhost.exe`
"Let Windows decide" is select by default ✅
* Changing the selection writes the new value ✅
Testing the new behavior:
* Delete the 2 keys below `HKCU\Console\%%Startup`
* Enable `Feature_AttemptHandoff` in `features.xml`
Return `true` from `DefaultApp::CheckShouldTerminalBeDefault`
* Use `CLSID_WindowsTerminalConsoleDev` and `CLSID_WindowsTerminalTerminalDev`
for the initialization of `TerminalDelegationPair`
* Replace `conhost.exe` and `console.dll` with `sfpcopy` after building
* Deploy the "Terminal Dev" package
* Launching `cmd.exe` launches "Terminal Dev" ✅
(because "Terminal Dev" has the marker interface)
* Open the settings tab
"Let Windows decide" is select by default ✅
* Changing the selection and saving writes the new value ✅
## Summary of the Pull Request
This introduced the `toggleBlockSelection` action to allow users to create a block selection using only the keyboard. This is not bound to any keys by default, however it is added to the command palette.
## References
#4993 - Epic
#5804 - Spec
## Validation Steps Performed
- [X] Mark mode always starts in line selection mode
- [X] Mouse selections are always in line selection mode by default
- [X] Can toggle block selection for an existing selection (regardless of how it was created)
- [X] The selection is copied properly (aka, no rendering issues)
## Summary of the Pull Request
Introduces a non-configurable version of mark mode to Windows Terminal. It has the following interactions defined:
- <kbd>ctrl+shift+m</kbd> --> Enter Mark Mode
- when in Mark Mode...
- <kbd>ESC</kbd> --> Exit Mark Mode
- arrow keys --> move "start"
- <kbd>shift</kbd> + arrow keys --> anchor "start", move "end"
- <kbd>ctrl+a</kbd> --> select all
- when a selection is active...
When in mark mode, the cursor does not blink.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
- `TermControl`:
- `TermControl.cpp` just adds logic to prevent the cursor from blinking when in mark mode
- `ControlCore`
- in the same place we handle quick edit, we add an entry point to mark mode
- `TerminalCore`
- this leverages `UpdateSelection()` and other quick edit functions to make mark mode happen
## Validation Steps Performed
- [x] Make selection, split pane, close pane
- NOTE: A similar scenario caused a crash at one point. Really weird. Keep an eye on it.
- [x] Cursor is off when in mark mode
- [x] general movement/selection
- [x] general movement/selection that forces the viewport to move
- [x] In mark mode, selectAll...
- [x] arrow keys --> move start
- [x] shift + arrow keys --> move end
- [x] (regardless of mark mode) if selection active, enter --> copy to clipboard
Adds the `selectAll` action which can be used to select all text in the buffer (regardless of whether a selection is present).

I've made it such that selecting the "entire buffer" really just selects up to the mutable viewport. This seems like a nice QOL improvement since there's generally nothing past that.
When the user selects all, the viewport does not move. This is consistent with CMD behavior and is intended to allow the user to not lose context when selecting everything.
A minor change had to be made to the DxRenderer because this uncovered an underflow issue. Basically, the selection rects were handed to the DxEngine relative to the viewport (which means that some had a negative y-value). At some point, those rects were stored into `size_t`s, resulting in an underflow issue. This caused the renderer to behave strangely when rendering the selection. Generally, these kinds of issues weren't really noticed because selection would always modify a portion of the viewport.
Funny enough, in a way, this satisfies the "mark mode" scenario because the user now has a way to initiate a selection using only the keyboard. Though this isn't ideal, just a fun thing to point out (that's why I'm not closing the mark mode issue).
## Validation Steps Performed
- Verified using DxEngine and AtlasEngine
- select all --> keyboard selection --> start moving the top-left endpoint (and scroll to there)
- select all --> do not scroll automatically
"Summon" was translated as a synonym for "citation" in Spanish instead
of treating it as a RPG-related word. "Show/Hide" will hopefully
allow an improved automatic translation in the future.

This should be most of the surfaces that we really care about for displaying "Windows Terminal". There's a pile of other references in code, but I couldn't find any other resources that mention it.
I left a lot of the references to Windows Terminal throughout. Seemed like it was fine to keep calling it that in most places, just these localized strings that are going to be displayed in the Shell that should be changed.
Rough compare:

The strings were also moved to the Context Menu resources file, because that's localized into more languages.
@DHowett we may want to spin a full build to make sure this works and I didn't miss anything

Adds an action which can be used to change the opacity at runtime. This is a follow up to some of the other work I had been doing around opacity and settings previewing at the end of the year.
> edit: pseudo-spec
>
> * `adjustOpacity`:
> * `"opacity"`: (**required**) an integer number to set the opacity to.
> * `"relative"`: (defaults to `true`)
> * If false, set the opacity to the given value, which should be between [0, 100].
> * If true, then use `opacity` as a relative adjustment to the current opacity. So the implementation would get the current opacity for this pane, then add this action's opacity to that value. Should be between [-100, 100]
>
> This would allow both setting exactly 25% opacity with an action, and binding an action that increases/decreases the opacity one {amount}
It's preview-able too, which is neat.

This adds an action for the context menu entry we added in #11062. That PR added support for exporting the buffer, exclusively through the tab item's context menu. This adds an action that can additionally be bound, which also can export the buffer to a file. This action accepts a `path` param. If empty/ommitted, then the Terminal will prompt for the file to export the buffer to.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
- Keep a buffer of panes/tabs that were closed recently in the form of a list
of actions to remake it.
- To restore the pane or tab just run the list of actions.
- This (deliberately) does not restore the exact visual state as focus could
have changed / new panes might have been created in the mean time. Mostly
this means that restoring a pane will just attach to the currently focused
pane instead of whatever its old neighbor was.
- Buffer is limited to 100 entries which might as well be "infinite" by most reasonable
standards, but prevents complaints about there being memory leaks in long running
instances.
- The action name could be potentially changed, but it felt unwieldy as "restoreLastClosedPaneOrTab".
- This does not handle restoring the actual running contents of a pane.
<!-- Describe how you validated the behavior. Add automated tests wherever possible, but list manual validation steps taken as well -->
## Validation Steps Performed
This commit adds additional information to the persisted window layouts.
- Runtime tab titles
- Focus, Maximized, and Fullscreen modes.
Also,
- Adds actions for Set{Focus,FullScreen} that take a boolean
to work in addition to the current Toggle{Focus, Fullscreen} actions.
- Adds SetMaximized that takes a boolean.
This adds the capability to maximize (resp restore) a window using
standard terminal actions.
This also involves hooking up a good amount of state tracking between
the terminal page and the window to see when maximize state has changed
so that it can be persisted.
- These actions are not added to the default settings, but they could be.
The intention is that they could assist with automation (and was originally)
how I planned on persisting the state instead of augmenting the LaunchMode.
- The fullscreen/maximized saving isn't perfect because we don't have a
way to save the non-maximized/fullscreen size, so exiting the modes
won't restore whatever the previous size was.

As VS 2022 doesn't seem to store files with UTF-8 BOM as often anymore, we've
been getting more and more pull requests which seemingly randomly change files.
This cleans the situation up by removing the BOM from all files that have one.
Additionally, `Host.Tests.Feature.rc` was converted from UTF-16 to UTF-8.
* [x] Fixes a bunch of the checkboxes in #11352
* [x] Fixes one of the boxes in #11353
* [x] The opacity warning -> error gibberish was fixed with the change to `DeserializationError` - `asCString` only works if the `JsonValue` is a string already.
This commit adds the ability to interact with subtrees of panes.
Have you ever thought that you don't have enough regression testing to
do? Boy do I have the PR for you! This breaks all kinds of assumptions
about what is or is not focused, largely complicated by the fact that a
pane is not a proper control. I did my best to cover as many cases as I
could, but I wouldn't be surprised if there are some things broken that
I am unaware of.
Done:
- Add `parent` and `child` movement directions to move up and down the
tree respectively
- When a parent pane is selected it will have borders all around it in
addition to any borders the children have.
- Fix focus, swap, split, zoom, toggle orientation, resize, and move to
all handle interacting with more than one pane.
- Similarly the actions for font size changing, closing, read-only, clearing
buffer, and changing color scheme will distribute to all children.
- This technically leaves control focus on the original control in the
focused subtree because panes aren't proper controls themselves. This
is also used to make sure we go back down the same path with the
`child` movement.
- You can zoom a parent pane, and click between different zoomed
sub-panes and it won't unzoom you until you use moveFocus or another
action. This wasn't explicitly programmed behavior so it is probably
buggy (I've quashed a couple at least). It is a natural consequence of
showing multiple terminals and allowing you to focus a terminal and a
parent separately, since changing the active pane directly does not
unzoom. This also means there can be a disconnect between what pane is
zoomed and what pane is active.
## Validation Steps Performed
Tested focus movement, swapping, moving panes, and zooming.
