Danny Clarke e4b4fb6a56 git_graph: Selectable commit message in detail panel (#59674)
# Objective

Fixes #57766 

Allow users to select and copy the text of commit messages from the git
graph details panel.

## Solution

Implements selectable commit message in the detail panel using
`MarkdownElement`s a la `commit_view`.

### Affordances considered and abandoned:

- "copy message" and/or "copy subject" buttons, but the UI here is
already pretty tight and I don't feel confident enough in my design
chops or familiarity with Zed to propose bigger UI changes here.

- Default-collapsed message with expand button, a la `commit_view`. The
use-case of this panel is to get the gist of a commit while moving
somewhat quickly through the graph. One might argue that the subject
line alone is enough for that, but often it isn't and the thought of
having to constantly expand commit messages rather than making the
message immediately visible with scroll felt like it would produce a
repetitious experience.

## Testing

- Adds two unit tests to verify that selection works and is idempotent

## Self-Review Checklist:

- [x] I've reviewed my own diff for quality, security, and reliability
- [x] Unsafe blocks (if any) have justifying comments
- [x] The content adheres to Zed's UI standards
([UX/UI](https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md#uiux-checklist)
and
[icon](https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/blob/main/crates/icons/README.md)
guidelines)
- [x] Tests cover the new/changed behavior
- [x] Performance impact has been considered and is acceptable

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.
