which_key: Add a pending key binding indicator (#63343)

This PR makes Zed's one-second key binding delay visible.

Say both ctrl-w and ctrl-w left have bindings. After you press ctrl-w,
Zed waits to see whether left follows. The PR shows that wait in the
status bar with a countdown. Hovering the indicator shows which bindings
can still match.

It also adds a setting to hide the indicator. It does not change how Zed
resolves key bindings.
