What:
  - Closing the active terminal from the sidebar activated the remaining
terminal.But closing a terminal with Ctrl-D could leave the agent panel
in an
uninitialized `Zed Agent` state instead of activating the remaining
terminal.

/>

How:
  - Terminal exits emit `TerminalCloseRequested`.
- The sidebar handles that request through the same close path used by
the
  sidebar close button.
- Neighbor activation, draft fallback, metadata cleanup, and
linked-worktree/
  archive handling stay centralized in the sidebar close flow.

Added test coverage for closing an active terminal via terminal exit and
  activating the remaining terminal neighbor.

Testing:
  - `cargo check -p agent_ui`
  - `cargo check -p sidebar`
  - Manually verified Ctrl-D terminal close behavior with multiple agent
  threads/terminals

Release Notes:

- Fixed closing an agent terminal with Ctrl-D leaving the agent panel
  uninitialized instead of activating the remaining terminal
```
