Do not serialize buffers containing bundled files (#38102)
Fix bundled file persistence by introducing SerializationMode enum

Closes: #38094

What's the issue?

Opening bundled files like Default Key Bindings
(zed://settings/keymap-default.json) was causing SQLite foreign key
constraint errors. The editor was trying to save state for these
read-only assets just like regular files, but since bundled files don't
have database entries, the foreign key constraint would fail.

The fix

Replaced the boolean serialize_dirty_buffers flag with a type-safe
SerializationMode enum:

```rust
pub enum SerializationMode {
    Enabled,   // Regular files persist across sessions
    Disabled,  // Bundled files don't persist
}
```

This prevents serialization at the source: workspace_id() returns None
for disabled editors, serialize() bails early, and should_serialize()
returns false. When opening bundled files, we set the mode to Disabled
from the start, so they're treated as transient views that never
interact with the persistence layer.

Changes

- editor.rs: Added SerializationMode enum and updated serialization
methods to respect it
- items.rs: Guarded should_serialize() to prevent disabled editors from
being serialized
- zed.rs: Set SerializationMode::Disabled in open_bundled_file()

Result

Bundled files open cleanly without SQLite errors and don't persist
across workspace reloads (expected behavior). Regular file persistence
remains unaffected.

Release Notes: Fixed SQLite foreign key constraint errors when opening
bundled files like Default Key Bindings.

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.
