Mikhail Butvin 93f07f6d17 terminal_view: Don't steal focus from an open modal when terminals appear (#63097)
# Objective

Pressing the recent projects shortcut right after launching Zed opens
the picker, which then dismisses itself a moment later. The terminal
panel takes focus after the keystroke, and the picker cancels on blur.

## Solution

Two paths focused the panel unconditionally at the end of async startup
work: the tail of `TerminalPanel::restore_serialized_state`, and
`RevealStrategy::Always` in `add_terminal_shell` (which
`finish_restoration` uses to spawn the default shell). Both now check
`has_active_modal`, as `add_center_terminal` already did. For the shell
path the check is at reveal time, because the spawn is itself async.

## Testing

Three tests in `terminal_panel.rs`. Two of them fail with the source
change reverted. Manually tested on Linux.

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.
