Subject: [PATCH] Add "New Center Terminal" to context menu (#53702)

Self-Review Checklist:

- [x] I've reviewed my own diff for quality, security, and reliability

checklist](https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md#uiux-checklist)
- [x] Tests cover the new/changed behavior

Release Notes:

- Added "New Center Terminal" button to window context menu

"New Terminal" only opens a new terminal window in the dedicated
terminal view, while "New Center Terminal" opens a new terminal in the
currently active view.
