Closes #32574
Adds a dedicated pane for inspecting the React Element that rendered the inspected DOM element.
The main motivation is having an affordance to open the source where the DOM element is rendered.
CleanShot.2025-11-28.at.00.25.16.mp4
The new pane has three UX quirks:
I feel like this should trigger de-selection instead
So far no fallback was good enough for the Components and Suspense tab because you couldn't escape React Elements in those tabs. In the browsers Elements panel it's much easier to do so a fallback is warranted. Probably fine to add the fallback in every context.
I don't have a solution for that yet. Maybe that's fine in the end and it's something you get used to. The main problem right now is that initial load ignores the users setting and hides host Elements by default. Fixing that particular bug might help this issue the most.
I'll file 1 and 2 as immediate follow-ups.
