Close Project closed exactly the selected projects, so a project that physically contains other projects left those open. The action now offers to close the nested projects too, in a dialog with "Close Selected Only" as the default, "Close Including Nested" and Cancel. A "Remember my decision" toggle stores the answer in a new workspace preference, shown next to the setting for opening referenced projects. Nothing is asked when no open project is nested below the selection. CloseUnrelatedProjectsAction opts out, it already confirms the projects it computes.

Close Project can take nested modules along, but Open Project brought back only the root, so the modules stayed closed. The action now offers to open them too, with Open Selected Only as the default, and a Remember my decision toggle backed by a new workspace preference next to the one for closing. The location matching moves into a helper shared by both actions. Assisted-by: multiple AI agents and layers of automated tooling 🤖

Follow-up to #4332. Once Close Project can take the nested modules of a Maven or Gradle root along, Open Project brought back only the root and left the modules closed. The action now asks the mirror question, with Open Selected Only as the default, Open Including Nested, and Cancel, and a Remember my decision toggle stores the answer in a new workspace preference next to the one for closing nested projects. The existing prompt for referenced projects is unchanged. The location matching moves into a small helper shared by both actions, and a new test covers both remembered answers and the two cases that ask nothing.
Builds on the #4332 commit, so it shows both until that one is merged and will be rebased afterwards. Verified locally with the new OpenResourceActionTest and the existing CloseResourceActionTest passing headless.
