project_symbols: Add preview to project symbols picker (#59863)
Candidate fix for #59822.

Adds a live preview pane to the project symbols picker, matching the
file finder and project search pickers. When the selection moves, the
selected symbol's file is shown in the preview with its declaration line
highlighted and vertically centered.

## Changes
- `project_symbols`: construct the picker with
`uniform_list_with_preview`; asynchronously open the buffer for the
selected symbol (cached by candidate id, cleared on each new query) and
implement `try_get_preview_data_for_match` to return the buffer plus the
symbol's anchor range.
- `picker`: add a public `refresh_preview` so a delegate can push
preview data once a buffer finishes opening asynchronously (the symbol
buffer is not available synchronously, unlike text search which already
holds open buffers).
