Feature Request: WebUI needs an option to continue AI response (e.g. after editing the response)

Prerequisites

• I am running the latest code. Mention the version if possible as well.
• I carefully followed the README.md.
• I searched using keywords relevant to my issue to make sure that I am creating a new issue that is not already open (or closed).
• I reviewed the Discussions, and have a new and useful enhancement to share.

Feature Description

Now that the WebUI has come together nicely, the main missing feature IMO is an option to continue the AI response. This would be particularly useful after an edit - if e.g. the AI got sidetracked halfway through its latest response you could edit the junk out and just have it go on from the good part. But it might also by useful without an edit, e.g. for a creative writing task where you just want a longer response without prompting it to continue. So my proposal is to change the tiny hover buttons from Copy/Edit/Regenerate/Delete to Copy/Edit/Regenerate/Continue/Delete. Maybe the icon could be a right-arrow?

Slightly off-topic but speaking of editing responses: currently if you edit an older response, the buttons are not Cancel/Save but Cancel/Send, where clicking Send auto-deletes all conversation below the edited response. I think this assumes too much. There are many situations where I want to edit the history but keep the full context in place. So I think Cancel/Save/Send would be better in that situation.

BTW, thank you @allozaur for the hard work on the amazing new Svelte UI!

Motivation
