## Message

```
project_panel: Fix preview tabs disabling focusing files after just one click in project panel (#42836)

Closes #41484

With preview tabs disabled, when you click once on a file in the project
panel, rather than focusing on that file, zed will incorrectly focus on
the text editor panel. This means if you click on a file to focus it,
then follow up with a keybind like backspace to delete that file, it
doesn't delete that file because the backspace goes through to the text
editor instead.

Incorrect behaviour seen here:

Release Notes:

- Fixed improper UI focus behaviour in the project panel when preview
tabs are disabled
```
