## Message

```
git_panel: Add Git actions in split button (#59608)

# Objective

Improve the Git panel changes header by making the Stage All / Unstage
All control more consistent with other split-button actions in the Git
panel, such as the Fetch/Pull button.

## Solution

- Replaced the standalone Stage All / Unstage All button with a split
button.
- Kept the primary action context-sensitive, switching between Stage All
and Unstage All.
- Moved related Git change actions into the split-button menu: staging,
stashing, discard tracked changes, and trash untracked files.

## Testing

- Ran `cargo fmt --check`.
- Ran `cargo check -p git_ui`.
- Manually verified the Git panel dropdown behavior in the app.

## Self-Review Checklist:

- [x] The content adheres to Zed's UI standards
([UX/UI](https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md#uiux-checklist)
and

guidelines)
- [ ] Tests cover the new/changed behavior
- [x] Performance impact has been considered and is acceptable

## Showcase

The Git panel changes header now uses a split button similar to the
Fetch/Pull control. The primary action updates between Stage All and
Unstage All, while the dropdown groups related Git actions.
