Steps to reproduce the issue:
- Open two editors and two data explorer windows.
- Use the Developer -> Reload Window command.
The data explorer windows disappear and aren't restored on reload.
What did you expect to happen?
The data explorers should be restored.
Just as we do with Plots, we should ask the backend to list its open comms to discover the set of data explorers that are still open, and restore tabs for each one.
This is an important feature for Posit Workbench; without it, you'll lose all your open explorers (and any filter/sort state you accumulated in them) if you close your browser tab.
Putting this into release candidate as we prep for Workbench integration.
Verified Fixed

Test scenario(s)
Data explorer tabs reload as expected. With the notable exception of date explorer tabs opened directly from the datafile (aka headless, duckdb based). See #5523
