feat: new :tree-sitter-tree command

[nik-rev]

Using % to select entire file and then using :tree-sitter-subtree which opens in a tiny window makes it difficult to inspect the entire tree.

It would be nice if you could open the current file's entire tree in a separate buffer. Currently this is just a basic implementation, which gets the current file's tree and dumps it into a new buffer. In the future the command can be updated to be more like neovim's :inspect-tree command.

Closes #12149

For now - as the panel doesn't auto update - would it be possible for subsequent :ts-tree invocations to replace the existing (if it still exists) ts-tree buffer instead of creating a new one?

Ok, I just pushed a commit. it will replace the existing buffer now.

And is it possible to prevent writing to the syntax tree buffer? Nvim's impl prevents modifying it, and I think especially now that we replace the buffer with a new one we should expect users not to edit it - and enforce that.

It's not possible to make a file unwritable from what I can tell (readonly will still allow editing, but not saving).
