Description of the new feature/enhancement

It's convenient to have an action renameTab which will not just set the tab's name to a predefined string but will allow a user to enter the name dynamically.

Proposed technical implementation details (optional)

Currently, there is an action
{ "command": { "action": "renameTab", "title": "some string"}, "keys": "" }

but it just sets the name using the predefined value. The result of this action should be the same as if a user makes a right-click on a tab and presses "Rename Tab".
