Lists: ListItem::editor draws a field in the title's place, for a row renamed in place; the title stays the row's name

 - 2026-10-05: `SelectableList` is a list in the AX tree, named by `label`; each `ListItem` is a list item with its title as name, its description, its selection, and, in a selectable list, its place and count (`ListItem::place`). Before, the rows had no role and were missing from the AX tree.
 - 2026-10-05: `NumberInput::blank` shows a placeholder, not a number, as for a mixed selection; Enter or blur on the empty field commits nothing, a typed number commits as usual. Before, a mixed field held a real number the owner had to invent, and Enter sent it. `ScrubInput` moved to `number/scrub.rs`.
 - 2026-10-07: gpui comes from crates.io's `gpui-pre` at the exact snapshot GPUI Kit pins, not from Zed's git. Two sources build two gpui crates whose types do not mix, so Ely and Kit could not share a window. The code is still Zed's; the publisher is not. This replaces the 2026-09-28 choice of Zed's git, and the pin moves when Kit's does.
+- 2026-10-19: `ListItem::editor` draws a field in the title's place, for a row renamed in place, as ELYTerminal's session rows rename; the title stays the row's name in the AX tree, and the row's press, selection and description stay as they were.
