The context-menu alias

This alias, by default translated to the internal zellij:context-menu plugin url, draws the right-click menu.

The items of the menu are not part of this plugin: they come from the context_menu block of the configuration. The plugin only shows them and runs the one that is chosen.

Contract

When the user right-clicks a pane, a tab or a bar (or runs zellij action open-context-menu), Zellij opens this plugin as a popup at the click and sends it the ContextMenu event, holding what was clicked and the items to show.

Zellij expects the plugin to:

1. Show the items, and let the user choose one with the mouse or the keyboard
2. Run the chosen item with the run_context_menu_item plugin command, giving its index
3. Close itself once an item is run or the menu is dismissed

To turn the menu off entirely, use context_menu_enabled false rather than replacing this alias.
