Prefill input context with resolved input variables

[Buckwich]

Closes #76
Closes camunda/camunda-modeler#5640

Proposed Changes

Note

PR still links to a git branch of variable resolver, will adjust to release version before merge. waiting on bpmn-io/variable-resolver#74

• prefill panel with variables provided by new variable resolver that contains variables needed in an expression
• adjust clear button to a reset button
  • resets the input to the determined empty prefill value
  • reset is now part of codemirror history (ie undoable)
  • enabled codemirror history
  • adjusted empty input default to {\n \n} to make it easier to get started editing the json

Pull request overview

This PR implements undoable reset-to-default functionality for the input panel by leveraging a new variable resolver that computes required variables from BPMN expressions. The "Clear" button has been replaced with a "Reset" button that populates the input with smart prefill values based on the element's variable requirements, and this reset operation is now undoable via CodeMirror's history extension.

Changes:

• Enabled CodeMirror undo/redo functionality (Ctrl+Z/Y) by adding history() and historyKeymap extensions
• Replaced "Clear" button with "Reset" button that prefills input with element-specific variable stubs
• Implemented automatic merging of variable requirements when BPMN model changes
• Changed default empty input from {} to {\n \n} for better UX

I can undo to the empty state, which I never actually had before. I think it's unexpected:
