Change Menu Terminology from 'Worktree' to 'Session' for Background (CopilotCLI) Sessions #298170

@DonJayamanne

Description

@DonJayamanne

With the new option allowing background sessions to be created using either Worktree or Workspace, the current menu options referring specifically to 'Worktree' are no longer universally appropriate. If a user starts a background session in a non-git folder or via Workspace options, the term 'worktree' can be confusing and misleading.

Proposed Improvement:
Update the menu options to use the term 'Session' for better clarity and universality. Suggested new options:

  • Open Session in New Window
  • Open Session in Integrated Terminal
  • Resume Session in Integrated Terminal

This change will make the options clearer in all scenarios, regardless of the underlying method for background session creation.
