Oleksandr KholiavkoandSmit Barmase dca5976f82 csv_preview: Implement data_table columns pining (#56619)
## Summary

Adds column pinning (freeze) capability to data tables, allowing the
first N columns to remain visible while scrolling horizontally through
the rest of the table content.

Common spreadsheet/data table UX pattern. When viewing wide tables with
many columns, users need to see identifying information (row labels,
IDs) while scrolling right to explore data.

## Demo
Idle state:
<img width="559" height="179" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/b3f89221-8aa9-4e8a-9a39-6f06cc8a4eea"
/>
Scrolled horizontally (name column dissapeared, line numbers column
stayed pinned):
<img width="522" height="174" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/c6695a00-5e40-49b8-81d7-0b30e26bb7bb"
/>

## Implementation

- New `pin_cols(n: usize)` builder method on `Table` to specify how many
columns to pin
- Pinned columns render in a fixed section that doesn't scroll
horizontally
- Scrollable columns render separately with independent scroll state
- Horizontal scroll offset adjustments for proper column resize handle
positioning with pinned sections
- Pinned section stays at viewport left edge while scrollable section
scrolls independently
- Supports 0 < pinned_cols < total_cols (partial pinning)
- Applied to CSV preview for better UX with wide datasets

## Context

Part of CSV preview feature series, following PR #53496 (settings UI).

checklist](https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md#uiux-checklist)~~
no ui changes besides pinning itself. UI improvements out of scope of
this PR

Release Notes:

- Improved CSV preview with column pinning to keep identifiers visible
while scrolling

Licensing

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.
