```
agent_ui: Add icon button to trigger the @-mention completions menu (#42449)

Closes https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/37087

This PR adds an icon button to the footer of the message editor enabling
to trigger and interact with the @-mention completions menu with the
mouse. This is a first step towards making other types of context you
can add in Zed's agent panel more discoverable. Next, I want to improve
the discoverability of images and selections, given that you wouldn't
necessarily know they work in Zed without a clear way to see them. But I
think that for now, this is enough to close the issue above, which had
lots of productive comments and discussion!

Release Notes:

- agent: Added an icon button in the agent panel that allows to trigger
the @-mention menu (for adding context) now also with the mouse.
```
