## Message

```
gpui_web: Only cancel the native context menu when the app claims the right-click (#60892)

# Objective

The contextmenu listener cancelled the browser's native menu
unconditionally, so pages hosting a gpui app lost right-click entirely
wherever the app showed no menu of its own, and apps that do show one
had no native menu to suppress selectively.

## Solution

Record whether the right-button MouseDown dispatch was consumed (a
handler called stop_propagation, e.g. to open a custom menu) and cancel
the native menu only in that case: app menus win where they exist, the
browser menu everywhere else. Apps opening custom context menus should
mark the triggering mousedown consumed to opt in.

## Testing

Tested locally
