Working well for me on Mac Desktop! I tried saving a plot from the Plots pane, from an Editor and via the command.
Some code questions and one UX idea for future consideration:
It would be so cool if we could focus or visually highlight the plot currently highlighted by the quick pick, to make it easier to distinguish which plot will be saved.
Some cases:
- if a user happens to have multiple plots open in editors, since they are identified by plot IDs, it can be hard to quickly tell which plot is being selected
- if a user wants to save a plot, but their Plots pane is not visible
For example, if a user uses the arrow keys to highlight the plot starting with ID d425, we could focus that editor and apply some visual highlighting (maybe outlining the editor with a coloured line?).

From a quick parse it doesn't look like we have explicitly async code in this file -- do we need the promise pattern in this file?
Address #4361
Refactors the command and action to work with editor tabs or the Plots view. Presents a quick pick when using the command palette if there is more than one plot across the plots view and editor tabs.
This introduces an abstract plot action so that other commands can also have the quick pick functionality with the command palette.

QA Notes
A new button will be available in the editor action bar for saving the editor tab plot.
