## Message

```
workspace: Persist recent navigation history across sessions (#55034)

Saves the recent navigation history (up to 20 entries) to the workspace
DB so it survives restarts. When reopening a workspace, persisted paths
that resolve to the current project are merged into the file finder's
history, deduplicated against files already opened in the session.
