set to `false` by default.

## Showcase

Below is the screen recording of these three tests:

1. Behavior of toggling comments when `comment_empty_lines` is `true`.
2. Switching the parameter value to true after commenting a block and
un-commenting the same block does not re-comment the block due to an
empty line in between.
3. Menu bar item is still present, albeit it's behavior is mapped to the
default value of the parameters of the bound action, instead of what is
inside the keybindings file. This (bug?) was present even before. See
the attached clip below.

Release Notes:

- Added `comment_empty_lines` parameter to `editor::ToggleComments` for
multiline selections.
Use `["editor::ToggleComments", {"comment_empty_lines": true}]` to
comment blank lines too (default for Zed keymap now), or
`["editor::ToggleComments", {"comment_empty_lines": false}]` to skip
them (default for VSCode keymap).

Licensing

Zed source code is licensed primarily under GPL-3.0-or-later, with Apache-2.0 components where marked.

License information for third party dependencies must be correctly provided for CI to pass.

We use cargo-about to automatically comply with open source licenses. If CI is failing, check the following:

  • Is it showing a no license specified error for a crate you've created? If so, add publish = false under [package] in your crate's Cargo.toml.
  • Is the error failed to satisfy license requirements for a dependency? If so, first determine what license the project has and whether this system is sufficient to comply with this license's requirements. If you're unsure, ask a lawyer. Once you've verified that this system is acceptable add the license's SPDX identifier to the accepted array in script/licenses/zed-licenses.toml.
  • Is cargo-about unable to find the license for a dependency? If so, add a clarification field at the end of script/licenses/zed-licenses.toml, as specified in the cargo-about book.
