Subject: [PATCH] feat: move stop button from shortcuts to kebab menu in
 workspace list (#21518)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

## Summary

Moves the stop action from the icon-button shortcuts to the kebab menu
(WorkspaceMoreActions) in the workspaces list view.

## Problem

The stop icon was difficult to recognize without context in the
workspace list view. Users couldn't easily identify what the stop button
did based on the icon alone.

## Solution

- The stop action is not a primary action and doesn't need to be
highlighted in the icon-button view
- Moved the stop action into the kebab (⋮) menu
- The start button remains as a primary action when the workspace is
offline, since starting a workspace is a more common and expected action

## Changes

- `WorkspaceMoreActions`: Added optional `onStop` and `isStopPending`
props to conditionally render a "Stop" menu item
- `WorkspacesTable`: Removed the stop `PrimaryAction` button and instead
passes the stop callback to `WorkspaceMoreActions` when the workspace
can be stopped

## Testing

- TypeScript compiles without errors
- All existing tests pass
- Manually verified that the stop action appears in the kebab menu when
the workspace is running

Fixes #21516
