Reece a349afe9c1 fix(files): folder history, one New folder control, and open-once
Walking into a folder wrote its path with replace, so the whole journey shared one
history entry: Back did not step up a folder, it left the library and landed on
whatever came before it. Each folder is its own entry now, and the two effects that
keep path and selection in step carry a marker so neither overwrites the entry the
other just arrived at. A path naming a folder that has not loaded yet waits for the
folder map to fill instead of falling back to the root.

New folder is one control in both places it appears. The empty state offered a
single click that guessed a destination and blocked itself where it could not; it
now shows the header's menu, under the header's label.

Opening a file already in the workspace skips the fetch-and-add and just goes to
it, and a folder answers to the source filter the way its files do.
