Right-clicking a ref label (branch, remote ref, or tag) in the git graph now opens a ref-specific context menu that resolves custom git commands with the clicked ref exposed as ZED_GIT_REF, mirroring how VS Code's git graph offers ref-aware actions. Right-clicking elsewhere on a commit keeps the existing commit-scoped menu.
