Add Warning Message When Renaming Active .ipynb Files #188593

@c0m

Description

@c0m

Currently, when a .ipynb file is renamed, VSCode starts a new kernel session without warning. This is abrupt and could disrupt user workflow, especially when working with large notebooks that take a significant amount of time to initialize.

This could be mitigated by having a warning message pop up when the user tries to rename an active .ipynb file.

This would reduce surprises if a user is changing file names while waiting for something in their notebook to complete.

Another potential solution could be to maintain the kernel session after the name change.
