Reopening a file puts me back where I was in it - #514

FilePositionStore keeps each file's cursor and top line in ~/.tui/TuiCode.positions.json, keyed by full path across folders, most recently used first and capped at 300; files inside .git are never kept. Workbench records a tab's position as it closes, every tab's before a folder switch and on quit, and hands it back as a file's tab is created, before it's added. Anything that opens at a place moves the cursor afterwards, which drops the remembered scroll, so it still wins. The scroll waits for the tab's first draw: before that TG hasn't sized the content to the text, so the viewport can't move past the first screen.

Summary
Opening a file now puts you back where you last were in it: the same cursor line and column, scrolled the same way. That holds for tabs restored with a folder (after
Ctrl+Q, or switching withor), for every restored tab, not just the active one, and for a file closed and reopened from the Explorer or quick open. It's remembered per file path, so the same file reached from another folder comes back at the same place.Anything that opens a file at a place still goes there: a Find result, Go to definition, Usages, Back / Forward,
Enterin a diff,tuicode file:42. A file that got shorter lands on its nearest line. Commit messages and rebase todos (anything inside.git) always open at the top.Closes #502
Notes
~/.tui/TuiCode.positions.json, capped at the 300 most recently used files. They're written when a tab closes, before a folder switch and on quit, never per keystroke.a-team try tuicode 514
