This PR supplements tasks with additional environment variables; ideally
we'll be able to write a task like:
`cargo test -p $ZED_CURRENT_PACKAGE -- $ZED_CURRENT_FUNCTION`
- [x] Flesh out multibuffer interactions
- [x] Add ZED_SYMBOL detection based on tree-sitter queries
- [ ] Add release note and demo
- [x] Figure out a solution for rerun dilemma - should `task: rerun`
reevaluate contexts for tasks?
This PR introduced the following variables:
- ZED_COLUMN - current line column
- ZED_ROW - current line row
and the following, which are available for buffers with associated
files:
- ZED_WORKTREE_ROOT - absolute path to the root of the current worktree.
- ZED_FILE - absolute path to the file
- ZED_SYMBOL - currently selected symbol; should match the last symbol
shown in a symbol breadcrumb (e.g. `mod tests > fn test_task_contexts`
should be equal to ZED_SYMBOL of `test_task_contexts`). Note that this
isn't necessarily a test function or a function at all.
Also, you can use them in `cwd` field of definitions (note though that
we're using https://docs.rs/subst/latest/subst/#features for that, so
don't expect a full shell functionality to work); the syntax should
match up with your typical Unix shell.
Release Notes:
- Added task contexts, which are additional environment variables set by
Zed for task execution; task content is dependent on the state of the
editor at the time the task is spawned.

That way one can use environment variables in task definitions.
Fixes: #8660
/cc @SomeoneToIgnore it looks like we don't ever set `separate_shell` to
false anymore, it might be worth streamlining?
Release Notes:
- Fixed static tasks not being run under a separate shell.
- Removed `separate_shell` setting from task definitions. It is now a default for tasks defined in tasks.json file.
