Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments

I added a handler for the DoubleTapped event on the tab view item
when we are constructing it for the tab (in Tab::_MakeTabViewItem).

The code for that handler was copied the "rename tab menu item" click
handler.

I did not extract the code into a member function because it is very
short (only 2 lines of code) and only used twice so it is not worth
it IMO.
