## Message

```
Display external paths in history (#2534)

Fixes
https://linear.app/zed-industries/issue/Z-1793/file-finder-external-recent-paths-are-not-rendered-properly

Long paths get trimmed, but same do many of our other elements, such as
type definitions, so I think it's ok for now:

Also, we seem to do a lot of odd diagnostics handling on every external
stdlib file opened:

Other external files also emit similar messages, but not that much.
@\mikayla-maki mentioned, that this was happening before, so can be
fixed separately.
The PR adds path printing to these logs.

Release Notes:

* Fixed external files not being displayed properly in the recently
opened list in the file finder panel
```
