fix(sidebar): fix rename input losing its selection on open

[waleedlatif1]

Summary

• Fixes rename occasionally deselecting the pre-highlighted text when opening the rename input for workflows, folders, and workspaces from the context/dropdown menu
• Root cause: Radix's FocusScope defers its close-time focus teardown to a setTimeout(0), which can run after the rename input's own mount-time focus()/select() and clobber the selection — explains why it was intermittent rather than every time
• Fix: focus + select the rename input from the shared ContextMenu's onCloseAutoFocus handler instead of a plain effect, since that callback runs synchronously inside Radix's own deferred teardown and always wins the race regardless of scheduler timing
• Additive-only change (new optional renameInputRef prop on ContextMenu, wired from the three rename call sites) — every other ContextMenu consumer is unaffected

Type of Change

• Bug fix

Testing

Verified via typecheck (clean, no new errors) and lint (clean), and traced the fix against Radix's actual FocusScope source to confirm the timing race it closes. Could not click through the live repro in this environment (no DB/auth available locally) — worth a manual pass before merge.

PR Summary

Low Risk
Small, UI-only focus-handling change with an optional prop; no auth, data, or API impact.

Overview
Fixes an intermittent bug where Rename from the sidebar context menu opened the inline input but cleared the pre-selected name text.

The shared ContextMenu now accepts an optional renameInputRef and, when Rename is chosen, sets a flag so DropdownMenuContent's onCloseAutoFocus (still calling preventDefault) re-focuses and select()s that input. That runs in Radix's close focus teardown and wins the race against deferred FocusScope cleanup that could run after mount-time focus/select.

Ref wiring is limited to workflow, folder, and workspace rename call sites; other ContextMenu users are unchanged. A guard ensures only a Rename-driven menu close triggers refocus, so closing the menu for other actions does not steal focus from an active rename elsewhere.

Greptile Summary

This PR fixes the sidebar rename focus race. The main changes are:

• Adds a shared rename input ref path to the sidebar context menu.
• Refocuses and selects the rename input from onCloseAutoFocus after Rename is selected.
• Wires the rename ref through workflow, folder, and workspace rename call sites.
• Gates the refocus so unrelated menu actions do not steal focus back into an active rename input.

Confidence Score: 5/5

This looks safe to merge.

• No blocking issues found in the changed code.
