## Message

```
editor: Add generic navigation overlays (#52630)

Closes #52629

## Overview

Adds a generic editor-owned navigation overlay primitive for rendering
target ranges, anchored labels, and fade ranges. This gives [Helix amp
jump](https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/pull/43733), [Beam
Jump](https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/pull/45387), and future
jump-style features (like [this
one](https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/14801)) a shared
editor abstraction for overlay layout and paint instead of
feature-specific render paths.
