editor: Fix autoscroll sometimes obscuring the current row behind a sticky header (#53165)
Fixes an autoscroll bug that sometimes obscures the current row behind a
sticky header.

The bug was caused by `Editor::autoscroll_vertically` using the
`sticky_header_line_count` value that was cached during the previous
render, which isn't necessarily the number of sticky headers that the
scroll target needs, e.g.
- when jumping to a definition
- when pressing the up arrow key when the selection is in the topmost
visible row with `"vertical_scroll_margin": 0`

This fixes that by not caching `sticky_header_line_count` and instead
querying Tree-sitter on the fly to get the number of sticky headers that
the scroll target needs. Performance-wise this seem okay, I measured it
to take less than 200µs on my machine using a very large Rust file (and
there are still some possible ways to optimize this if necessary). In
particular, the pathological huge single-line file case as discussed in
#48450 shouldn't be an issue here because unlike the main sticky header
Tree-sitter query, here we query the outline items that contain a
particular point rather than those that intersect an entire row.

The `ScrollCursorTop` handler is also simplified to use the same shared
function for counting the number of sticky headers, since that action
doesn't rely on autoscroll.

Licensing

License information for third party dependencies must be correctly provided for CI to pass.

We use cargo-about to automatically comply with open source licenses. If CI is failing, check the following:

  • Is it showing a no license specified error for a crate you've created? If so, add publish = false under [package] in your crate's Cargo.toml.
  • Is the error failed to satisfy license requirements for a dependency? If so, first determine what license the project has and whether this system is sufficient to comply with this license's requirements. If you're unsure, ask a lawyer. Once you've verified that this system is acceptable add the license's SPDX identifier to the accepted array in script/licenses/zed-licenses.toml.
  • Is cargo-about unable to find the license for a dependency? If so, add a clarification field at the end of script/licenses/zed-licenses.toml, as specified in the cargo-about book.
