Pull Request Overview
This PR enables drag-and-drop functionality for SCM (Source Control Management) history items (commits) into terminals, editors, and external applications. Previously, commits couldn't be dropped into terminals, dropping into editors would paste internal URIs, and dragging outside VS Code wasn't supported.
Key changes:
- Added support for dropping SCM history items into terminal instances, which pastes the commit hash
- Implemented text data transfer for SCM history items to enable dragging to editors and external apps
- Integrated SCM history item drop handling into the terminal's drag-and-drop controller
