recent_projects: Make the currently active project visible in the picker (#53302)

This PR improves the recent projects picker in the context of
multi-workspace:

- The currently active project now appears in the "This Window" section
with a checkmark indicator. Clicking it simply dismisses the picker,
since there's nothing to switch to. This feels like a better UX because
it gives you visual confirmation of where you are.
- The remove button is hidden for the current project entry, both in the
row and the footer, to prevent accidentally removing the workspace
you're actively using.
- The "Add to Workspace" button now uses a more descriptive icon
(`FolderOpenAdd`) and shows a meta tooltip clarifying that it adds the
project as a multi-root folder project.

The primary click/enter behavior remains unchanged—it opens the selected
project in the current window's multi-workspace. The "Open in New
Window" action continues to be available via the icon button or
shift+enter.

Release Notes:

- Improved the recent projects picker to show the currently active
project in the "This Window" section with a checkmark indicator.
