workspace: Add NewFileSplit action with direction (#39726)

Add new `workspace::NewFileSplit` action which expects a
`SplitDirection` argument, allowing users to programmatically control
the direction of the split in keymaps, for example:

```json
{
    "context": "Editor",
    "bindings": {
        "ctrl-s ctrl-h": ["workspace::NewFileSplit", "left"],
        "ctrl-s ctrl-j": ["workspace::NewFileSplit", "down"],
        "ctrl-s ctrl-k": ["workspace::NewFileSplit", "up"],
        "ctrl-s ctrl-l": ["workspace::NewFileSplit", "right"]
    }
}
```

Release Notes:

- Added `workspace::NewFileSplit` action, which can be used to
programmatically split the editor in the provided direction.
