docs: Document Terminal Threads feature (#56679) (cherry-pick to preview) (#57182)
Cherry-pick of #56679 to preview

----
Adds documentation for the Terminal Threads feature — the ability to
open interactive terminals in the Agent Panel alongside threads.

## Changes

- **`agent-panel.md`**: Adds a new `## Terminals` section covering how
to open terminals, terminal titles, bell notifications, and closing.
Also adds a Terminal bullet to the `+` menu description in "Creating New
Threads".
- **`parallel-agents.md`**: Updates the page title, description, and
opening paragraph to include terminals alongside threads. Adds a note in
the Threads Sidebar section that terminals appear there too.

Release Notes:

- N/A

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.

Sponsorship

Zed is developed by Zed Industries, Inc., a for-profit company.

If youd like to financially support the project, you can do so via GitHub Sponsors. Sponsorships go directly to Zed Industries and are used as general company revenue. There are no perks or entitlements associated with sponsorship.
